Policy T1 - Highways

Representation ID: 16058

Received: 28/10/2009

Respondent: Rochford & District Chamber of Trade & Commerce

Representation Summary:

Are the hopes outlined here realistic? It is a lost cause to try to cut down the use of the private car. Section 106 Agreements would appear unlikely to cover the cost of adequate improvements. If this is not carried out, we will have serious problems with the increase in development planned.

Policy T3 - Public Transport

Representation ID: 16060

Received: 28/10/2009

Respondent: Rochford & District Chamber of Trade & Commerce

Representation Summary:

The concept is good but would not appear sustainable. Public transport providers will only operate where there is sufficient demand and revenue. The type of vehicles may change in the future - they may become more "green". Therefore more emphasis should be put on the private car making shorter and less journeys. More adequate parking etc. Attention should be paid to a system of integrated interchange of transport - cars/trains/buses/planes

Policy T8 - Parking Standards

Representation ID: 16062

Received: 28/10/2009

Respondent: Rochford & District Chamber of Trade & Commerce

Representation Summary:

We agree. There must be adequate parking spaces per dwelling in new developments - not just the minimum required - they need to be realistic. To apply the minimum will cause congestion and frustration to residents.

Representation ID: 16065

Received: 28/10/2009

Respondent: Rochford & District Chamber of Trade & Commerce

Representation Summary:

Our main concern is the re-development of industrial areas where this is out of town and means more travel for employees. We do not want to see industrial areas move away from towns because of the pressure of housing policy
