I would like to object to many of the potential housing applications particularly CFS074,CFS194,169,150 and CFS020.
The B1013 is already at saturation level particularly at the SPA/Hockley High Street mini roundabout. This is already causing major holdups with the associated pollution concerns. The effect of 1200+ houses with the associated 2000+ cars on this route can only be imagined!! The poor throughput in the Rayleigh to Hawkwell direction is primarily caused by the angle of the Southend road approach to the mini roundabout limiting visibility of cars from Hawkwell causing all cars approaching from Rayleigh to effectively stop. A revision to a proper roundabout (as per Rawreth Lane) would probably help but not eliminate this issue. Traffic lights would not help at all.
The CFS261 potential plan would require a major road change (Northern relief road?) and/or a major change to Watery Lane to Battlesbridge.
To consider any of these schemes without having a traffic mitigation plan (as in the past) will be complete folly.
