Draft Local Plan - Supplementary Consultation

Representation ID: 7423

Received: 11/03/2019

Respondent: Mr Darryl Chinn

Representation Summary:

I accept the need for new housing and do appreciate the reduction in massing but I am seriously concerned at the lack of infrastructure this increase of 600 plus car usage requires. There are regular accidents at Tilehouse Lane junction Stratford canal bridge and the bend close to Bills Lane junction. This will only increase with the increase in traffic usage particularly at rush hours. Lorries and coaches have to slow, sometimes stop to pass on this road. In addition there will be increases in noise and air pollution and pedestrian safety will be reduced with this proposed development.
