Town Centre Masterplans

Representation ID: 837

Received: 28/01/2008

Respondent: Mr Chris Taylor

Representation Summary:

Access to Hockley is via two busy roads which meet in the centre and there is little room for housing development close to the centre. Some relief could be given by a road following the railway line to Rayleigh from the Plumberow Road junction. This route may open up areas for housing development. Magnolia Road into Hawkwell, again beside the railway line, may also offer brownfield building opportunities.
