New Local Plan

Representation ID: 3810

Received: 09/04/2019

Respondent: Mr Stew Mills

Representation Summary:

The main barrier to east/west traffic in Southend is the Southend Victoria railway line - The only crossings are East Street and Eastern Avenue (Warners Bridge is a north/south crossing). Many years ago, when Teddy Taylor was our MP, I suggested a further crossing at Warners Bridge, the idea was to create a new east/west route - The Tesco - Waitrose link. Since then Fossetts Way has been built and Eastwoodbury Lane connected to Nestuda Way, the only bridge remains to be connecting Temple Farm to Harp House roundabout , it would provide a 'direct' alternatove route to the new football stadium.
