As the A127 corridor can be expanded to cope with increased road traffic & increased rail traffic, including an additional rail station, disruption to the whole of Essex will be confined to a smaller area both during construction & once housing is completed & occupied, as long as local amenities to this area (schools, GPs, shops) are adequately provided for the increased population, so sites around West Horndon & Dunton Hills seem the best options. Dispersing development to multiple sites over a wider area would clearly result in more widespread disruption throughout Essex both during construction & once new housing occupied, which would seem a major disadvantage.
