Respondent: Mr David Fryer-Kelsey

Representation Summary:

The residents of Hockley have already requested the provision of cycle lanes and appropriate access points - Hockley to Rayleigh and Hockley to Rochford and to all schools in Hockley. The response is that there is no space for continuous stretches.
Space will not magically appear so it is not possible for this part of the Core Strategy to be implemented.

Representation Summary:

More thought needs to be put to provision of cycling and walking .For example it states that watery lane and beeches road are to be improved to take extra traffic from hullbridge this will be in direct conflict with the stated intention to direct cyclists down these roads on a sustrans network .It is already too dangerous to cycle safely down there .There is also conflict with pedestrians as there is no path or refuge leading from a footpath from hullbridge to battlesbridge until the seawall is open for access under new legislation .

Agent: Boyer Planning Ltd

Representation Summary:

We support this policy since the provision of facilities for cycling and walking would be consistent with proposals for the development of Pond Chase Nursery site. The developer of the site will work with the relevant authorities including SUSTRANS to make provision for cycle routes through the site to link to existing and proposed cycling facilities within the West Hockley area.

Respondent: Countryside Properties (Southern) Ltd

Representation Summary:

We agree with the principles of this policy. However, the scale of any contributions towards such initiatives should of course reasonably relate to the impact of the development of the land in question. Circular 5/05 and the emerging/published DCLG guidance on the use of CIL, makes it clear that new developments/contributions from new development can not be used to resolve existing deficiencies (only, proportionally, those deficiencies made worse by new development).

The extent of contributions should be determined at the time at which a masterplan or development brief is prepared for a site.
