Representation Summary:

Referring to Section 3.4 the document says that the Council intends to work with ECC to agree priorities for improvements to the movement framework at key junctions. However, Figure 8 shows the central area of the High Street transformed into a shared space arrangement which will seriously inhibit traffic flow. Rayleigh Town Council advises that the shared space idea is potentially dangerous and unacceptable to the town.

Representation Summary:

Rayleigh Town Council advises that the ' Removal of formal pedestrian crossings and replacement with a greater number of informal crossing points along key desire lines.' is potentially dangerous.

Representation Summary:

In Section 2.8 it states 'minor walking improvements could be delivered in the form of a redesigned taxi rank the removal of guard railings and general de cluttering'. Rayleigh Town Council advises that we have narrow pavements on corners in some places and the guard railings not only stop pedestrians from crossing the road there but also keep them away from the pavement edge where they are vulnerable to being hit by large commercial vehicles.
