New Local Plan: Spatial Options Document 2021

Representation ID: 41171

Received: 17/08/2021

Respondent: Miss Petra Le Grice

Representation Summary:

Planning policy ref CFS194 CFS169 CFS150 CFS020
I strongly object to the proposals to build 801 houses on the sites CFS194 , CFS169 , CFS150 and CFS020

This is an area of rural land with badgers in the vicinity and any other species of wildlife Where will this wildlife go if the land is built on ?

The roads that these houses are proposed to have access to are already severely congested , Rectory Road is a small road , not built to take such large quantities of traffic , the traffic lights under the railway bridge permit one way traffic and an increase in volume like this is absolutely ridiculous.
Also this area under the bridge has flooded several times in the past year , resulting in the road being totally closed , again causing severe disruption on adjacent roads .

There are not sufficient school places , doctor or dentist places for an increase of maybe 2000 people that these houses would have and services are not easily walkable to , resulting in people having to drive anywhere they needed to be .

Hawkwell used to be a quiet village , separated from both Rayleigh and Rochford by farmland , woods and green spaces , these are being eroded one by one resulting in a sprawl of all villages joining up with each other This is not acceptable and I object strongly
