Stambridge Mills Industrial site will be unsustainable for housing due to flood risk and the potential mitigation costs and therefore should be retained for light industrial use. Alternative site for housing needs to be allocated.

The breakdown table of 2001-2021 housing trajectory by source anticipates 125 housing units to come from redevelopment of identified employment allocations in both 2010/11 and 2011/12. Do not believe that this is deliverable within the suggested timescale.

Respondent: Essex Chambers of Commerce
The production of travel plans for schools is regarded as essential as this should help to relieve traffic congestion for the movement of goods and services during the morning peak travel time. Research by the British Chambers of Commerce has consistently shown that the ''school run'' is the main cause of traffic congestion with the resultant extra costs to business.

Vision
Representation ID: 15940
Received: 02/11/2009
Respondent: Essex Chambers of Commerce
Essex Chambers of Commerce strongly supports the vision for transport and the development of a Transport Strategy SPD which must be subject to meaningful consultation with stakeholders. It is vitally important for the efficient movement of goods and services that significant improvements to the existing highway infrastructure will be required during the plan period. The existing levels of congestion are considered to be unacceptable, so further provision is essential to cope with the traffic generation to be created by more housing and employment. Consideration must also be given to a better east-west route linking east Rochford to the A130/A127.
