Also While I am aware that each site that has been put forward for consideration has been assessed against certain criteria, I am not sure that the assessments are in fact correct. A score of '5' for public transport for a site means there are 10+ buses an hour. In the proposed sites that I have mentioned East of Ferry Road in Hullbridge that score '5' would and should be '0' because we do not have any public transport facilities beyond Ferry Road.
The same applies to flood risk sites. many sites have been scored far higher than they should be, given the recent announcement by the Environment Agency.
