Southend Central Area Action Plan (SCAAP) - Schedule of Modifications to the Revised Proposed Submission

Representation ID: 2896

Received: 20/09/2017

Respondent: Essex Chambers of Commerce

Representation Summary:

We support the principle behind this policy but have concerns about when any analysis of the impact of additional parking demand on the key visitor car parks would take place. This could for example be undertaken in an off peak time and therefore not consider the impact of peak demand at other times of the year. Any such analysis must reflect demand throughout the year.

We also have concerns about the potential loss of parking during any development period and what alternatives might be provided.
