I would like to object to CSF023.
This area is prime green belt land and needs to stay that way. It is very close to Beckney woods and poses a danger to the natural habitat of the woods. It poses a flood risk and also a possible impact on our already inadequate water pressure. The access into the site is questionable; an access road in Greensward Lane would be dangerous, especially where the speed limit changes from 30 to 40. It is well known that this section of road becomes a 'racetrack' at night.
The infrastructure of Hockley ie doctors, school places would be impacted. Most importantly, Southend Hospital will not be able to cope if the houses in this development, and all the other proposed houses in Rochford, are built.
More houses produce more cars. Spa roundabout is congested for most of the day. If new residents can't get their children into local schools in Hockley and have to drive them to other areas, this means more cars on the road in the rush hour periods.
