Hockley Area Action Plan - Issues and Options

Representation ID: 4801

Received: 02/03/2009

Respondent: Mr Terry Waine

Representation Summary:

Hockley residents have parking concerns.The problem could be it is insufficient near Somerfield.An option is to knock Alldays down and combine the space created with the 'Somerfield' car park with landscaping and seating screening to the front. There is also a strip of unused land in Eldon Way between some buildings and the Somerfield/Alldays car park fence.
The Plan lacks any proposals for dealing with more traffic arising from the 'Growth' options. Water and sewage risks should be assessed for Hockley and the'District' given the relative dryness of the location and the increasing demand from more industry and housing.
