New Local Plan: Spatial Options Document 2021

Representation ID: 39655

Received: 22/09/2021

Respondent: Mrs Rebecca Hallett

Representation Summary:

Rayleigh is already an overpopulated town with limited routes in and out of the area. Traffic is dreadful in this area at the best of times so adding this many houses will only make the situation worse. Also I have noticed that recent developments of houses in the area have crammed houses in with no driveway and narrow streets. With most households now having 2+ cars and nowhere to park any new developments should have to provide adequate parking to avoid cars ending up parked on the pavements.
