New Local Plan

Representation ID: 3689

Received: 02/04/2019

Respondent: Thurrock Borough Council

Representation Summary:

Thurrock generally supports approach to improving the A127 but would need to understand how the development of the spatial option for the Southend New Local Plan would impacts upon the current and planned road network and in particular any larger scale new settlement and what improvements and mitigation measures would be required.

Furthermore Thurrock Council would wish to understand the cost and delivery of any transport improvements associated with a new settlement and how these would align with infrastructure requirements for the South Essex JSP especially any proposal for new road or by-pass scheme for this section of the A127.
