Why are these documents not in plain English? We consider ourselves reasonably intelligent but unfortunately have not had a university degree in gobbledygook.

Going by the maps ,our understanding is that large areas of Rayleigh and Rawreth will be concreted over with little or no infrastructure improvements.

Over the past few years traffic has increased to the extent where if there is an incident on the A127 or A13 ,Rayleigh becomes gridlocked.

Where will the new schools, health centres and public transport routes be sited.?

Who are these people who make these planning decisions and are they local to Rayleigh?

We are totally against any increase in further development of these areas.
