New Local Plan: Spatial Options Document 2021

Representation ID: 40053

Received: 03/08/2021

Respondent: Mr Jason Case

Representation Summary:

I would like to register my concerns with the proposed developments planned at the below locations,

Land between Wellington road, bull lane and Napier road.

The roads around these locations have already suffered from flooding recently and with less green space to help drain excess rain water this will only get worse.

As a Rayleigh resident we severely struggle to get health care appointments with the current population and this will only get worse with the proposed increase of housing.

The roads in these locations are severely run down and have several pot holes and are only going to get worse again with increased use due to more housing.

It will have a negative impact on popular walking routes which current residents enjoy and will destroy the nature that habitats the areas.

Schools are already over subscribed and with no new schools proposed how will this be remedied.

Traffic in Rayleigh is usually gridlocked currently with more housing brings more cars resulting in more pollution and more traffic.

By getting rid of these green spaces you are eroding the appeal of Rayleigh and not thinking about current residents that have lived here and enjoy living here because of the wonderful balance that currently exists but is disappearing with the number of substantial developments already constructed/in construction.
