Southend Central Area Action Plan (SCAAP) - Revised Proposed Submission 2016
Representation ID: 2487
Received: 12/11/2016
Respondent: Miss Laura Cowell
With regard to new or improved pedestrian links between PA.1 and PA.2, it is not clear how the new developments currently in construction in Vic Ave play into any development brief for this area. Will there be a lack of cohesion or continuity for the different sites. How can you propose new/improved open spaces in Vic Ave when all the sites are already being developed by different developers in mismatched styles and with not much evidence of green spaces?

The pedestrianisation of Warrior Square including up to the High Street is long overdue and would help draw people into this area from the High Street. The area outside Maitland House feels like a back street, choked up with cars and Warrior Square is blocked from view if you are in the High Street.

Nature Improvement Areas (NIA) are fundamental to the step-change needed to establish a coherent and resilient ecological network. Policies should ensure that any development affecting the Greater Thames Marshes NIA should be compatible with their purpose and make a positive contribution to NIA enhancement (using CIL/S106 agreements/conditions as appropriate).
Thank you for your consultation on the above which was received by Natural England on 03 November 2016.
Natural England is a non-departmental public body. Our statutory purpose is to ensure that the natural environment is conserved, enhanced, and managed for the benefit of present and future generations, thereby contributing to sustainable development.
