Dear Sir / Madam,

Q60a. Do you agree with our vision for Hullbridge? Is there anything you feel is missing?
Answer - No we do not agree with the vision for Hullbridge.

Q60b. With reference to Figure 48 and your preferred Strategy Option, do you think any of the promoted sites should be made available for any of the following uses? How could that improve the completeness of Hullbridge?
Answer - Our preferred option would be #3 (West of Rayleigh, North of Southend or East of Rochford).

Q60c. Are there areas in Hullbridge that development should generally be presumed appropriate? Why these areas? [Please state reasoning] Answer - No, the infrastructure cannot cope with further development, i.e. if there is an issue to Lower Road or Watery Lane, the whole area becomes gridlocked. The doctors surgery is overwhelmed at the best of times now let alone if more pressure is put on it. The local primary school will need extending to cope with the additional children that will need educating locally.

Q60d. Are there areas that require protecting from development? Why these areas? [Please state reasoning] Answer - Yes, all of them, the infrastructure within Hullbridge cannot sustain further development. Any improvements to the infrastructure (i.e. widening of watery lane / third route in/out), upgrading of the doctors surgery and school so they will be able to cope with the additional pressures should be completed prior to any development works.

Q60e. Do you agree that the local green spaces shown on Figure 48 hold local significance? Are there any other open spaces that hold particular local significance? [Please state reasoning] Answer - In a world that is under serious threat from climate change, surely all green areas hold significance.
