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.

Vision

Representation ID: 15940

Received: 02/11/2009

Respondent: Essex Chambers of Commerce

Representation Summary:

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.
