New Local Plan: Spatial Options Document 2021

Representation ID: 41921

Received: 30/08/2021

Respondent: Dietmar Mair

Representation Summary:

The infrastructure in Rochford is simply not able to handle such big developments. Doctors are overstretched, water systems are not able to cope and the roads are not designed for such an increase in traffic.

If anything, I suggest looking into the option of constructing a link between the Potash roundabout directly to the A127 to avoid filtering all commuting traffic through Hockley and Rayleigh.

To whom it may concern,

As a resident of Rectory Road, I herewith object to the earmarking of CFS194, CFS169, CFS150 and CFS020 for development.
