Respondent: Leigh-on-Sea Town Council

Southend should develop in the future by considering Option 3 – “Option 2 + working with neighbouring authorities to develop a comprehensive new settlement across Borough boundaries (strategic scale development).” However to achieve this, there must be a significant upgrade to strategic transport network and without working with neighbouring authorities, Southend Borough will bear the brunt continually on its infrastructure of other authorities building houses on the Southend boundaries without providing their own sufficient infrastructure but relying on Southend roads . Leigh Town Council have also chosen Option 3 as we have a responsibility to our residents to protect Leigh-on-Sea’s green belt areas.
