Southend Central Area Action Plan (SCAAP) Preferred Approach 2015

Representation ID: 2038

Received: 02/02/2016

Respondent: Mr Michael Victor Davies

Representation Summary:

If the whole of the Seaway car park is built on, where will people who now park there to shop in Southend High Street and the Royals, and use the seafront facilities, park? The Royals car park and the ones at the back of Marks and Spencer already get filled up. If Seaway car park disappears, or is severely reduced in size, those two car parks will have even more strain put upon them, much to the frustration of local shoppers and visitors to the town, some of whom may well decide it's just not worth the bother, and head out to Basildon, or other seaside resorts. I note that local traders are also now expressing concerns about parking, as reported on the front page of the Yellow Advertiser of Friday 29 January 2016.
