160 Ms S Barnes<br />
No green belt should be released. Housing should be put to existing building area such as Rochford Hospital and Park<br />
School.<br />
Sm<strong>all</strong> areas attached (Green Belt) or within established communities should still be released which in some cases, with<br />
161 Mr S J Benee<br />
carefull design can enhance the area.<br />
162 Mr & Mrs Livens No further development should be considered until vastly improved road and rail links are established.<br />
Before <strong>all</strong> these new houses are built much thought and discussion needs to be done. Main issues need to be addressed in<br />
order <strong>of</strong> priority. In my opinion roads must come near the top because this corner <strong>of</strong> Essex is slowly coming to a standstill.<br />
The Lower Road/Ashingdon Road between Hullbridge and Rochford barely moves with the traffic now - especi<strong>all</strong>y morning<br />
and evening rush hour. It only takes the slightest accident and the whole system comes to a complete halt. Also Watery<br />
Lane is becoming a very dangerous rat run that needs to be addressed before any more houses are built thus causing<br />
increasing congestion/pollution and damage. Of course any new roads will also cause more objections etc, but ultimately<br />
163 Mr S T Cardwell this may be a necessary evil.<br />
Before releasing any open green belt land why not infill existing plots on green belt sites in <strong>all</strong> areas. (Example Eastwood<br />
164 Mr I King<br />
Rise area has already been used).<br />
Why am I bothering to reply? We have no land to spare for God's sake, STOP building in this area. A;ready the roads are<br />
165 Mr G Searles<br />
at grid-lock. How much pro<strong>of</strong> do you need?<br />
166 G W Fleming Where would a new town be built? Where is enough land in the area to even consider this.<br />
167 Mrs J Marsh<strong>all</strong> Where is there enough land for a whole new town? Perish the thought. Quite built up enough here.<br />
We should not release green belt land, we are already over-developed, every time a house or bungalow is demolished<br />
either two or more houses or a block <strong>of</strong> flats seems to be built there. The infrastructure is not in place to support any more<br />
168 Ms L Young<br />
people.<br />
It may be necessary to build one fairly large new village/development, but we feel every village in the district should have a<br />
proportion <strong>of</strong> the government inposed housing. Stambridge, Canewdon, Paglesham, Sutton etc need an injection <strong>of</strong> homes<br />
and people to keep them viable. Improved public transport would be needed and also a few shops and/or sm<strong>all</strong> businesses<br />
could be included. Areas in Hullbridge have room for some development with a little space available in Rayleigh. We<br />
169 Mr & Mrs Garlick would consider that Rochford and Hockley have probably had as much development as they can take.<br />
We do not consider that there should be a new town as much as possible should be built on brownfield land and where<br />
expansion is required Rayleigh is an obvious choice - Rochford and Ashingdon have been overdeveloped in the last 10<br />
170 Mr & Mrs Gibson years. As little as possible <strong>of</strong> the green belt should be sacrificed.<br />
We should not let central government bully Rochford Council into releasing green belt. This can be justified by ensuring <strong>all</strong><br />
present empty properties or sites are refurbished or developed only. Definitely no NEW TOWN as this will entirely alter the<br />
171 Ms K Meiklejohn areas nature and place pressure on transport links presently under developed by central government.<br />
By returning this form we do not accept the premis that Rochford District should find room for 4600 new homes without the<br />
roads to support it. Green belt should be protected with vigor gener<strong>all</strong>y. There may be a case for development where<br />
green belt is sandwidged between development ie between Seaview and Goldsworthy Drive, Great Wakering quality <strong>of</strong> life<br />
173 Mr & Mrs Cripps must come before dictates <strong>of</strong> Government. Rochford and Southend appear at saturation point and further development<br />
I think releasing the sm<strong>all</strong> pockets <strong>of</strong> green belt around Ashingdon/Rochford etc is a BAD idea. Residents would be<br />
opposed to losing these green areas and the roads are already over conjested (especi<strong>all</strong>y the Ashingdon Road) a new town<br />
would seem a better proposition but a new road would be needed into Southend and the A127 would have to be widened.<br />
174 Mr P Clark<br />
The traffic in our area is diabolical! Especi<strong>all</strong>y in the morning rush hour.
