Respondent: Mr Denis Warren
My concerns are about infrastructure. If large numbers are to be earmarked then green belt should be protected. Poor quality green belt can be sacrificed if it is in areas where there are roads which have scattered bungalows and small holdings; such as from Daws Heath Road to Rayleigh Downs Road or Rawreth Lane - roads to the north side. Hullbridge Road, Lanes opposite golf course. The big proviso should be air quality which is not good in Rayleigh. Strict measures to protect as many trees as possible otherwise there will be no future for our grandchildren and those generations to follow. Its no good saying you will replace them. Years ago the Council chopped down all the lime trees in our road despite my protests saying they would plant new, and they did, but they never survived the vandals, vehicles, droughts. Apart from what neighbours have planted or preserved in their front gardens, we have no roadside trees now.
No major development until sewer and drainage is improved especially at Hullbridge and Connaught Road area. Those sewer stations will not cope. There will be major problems id this is ignored.
Traffic routes - To London bound and north bound must be improved first. At present A127, A13 and A130 do not cope in the event of a problem or just volume of traffic. Jams make the air quality far worse.
I consider my statements to be totally necessary to avoid massive health problems. We also need more doctors, hospitals, police (vital) its becoming lawless.
Conservation areas, woodland and lovely green belt must be protected at all costs.
