Consultation of Local Plan CFS064

This site only has the B1013 as its potential feeder road which regularly experiences severe traffic congestion being one of the busiest B roads in the country. The other proposed local plan sites CFS160, CFS161, CFS074, CFS194, CFS169, CFS150, CFS020 are all going to put additional traffic on the B1013, they are proposing if these sites are adopted upto 6,000 homes which means up to 12,000 cars plus. The B1013 could not cope with this additional traffic.

CFS064 is green belt land and is farmed regularly. The site is surrounded by three small ancient woods and is important wildlife habitat, supporting many native species.

There is a public footpath around the site which is well used for recreation by local residents.

The infrastructure of Hockley is struggling to cope with the homes we already have. Appointments for doctors and dentists are very hard to make without additional homes. Are there going to be enough places in schools for the children from these proposed new homes that are within walking distance.
