The traffic around Shenfield, especially Priests Lane and Chelmsford Road every morning is at a standstill - it makes getting anywhere by car a nightmare - so my family walked to school. Recently my son was knocked down by a driver racing the lights because of the traffic, even though the green man was flashing on Chelmsford Road.

Shopping in Shenfield again is impossible with limited parking and local schools are over subscribed, with classes so full even local children are not receiving places. I cannot see how Shenfield will cope with the extra traffic and population. More houses mean you will need more schools. doctors, parking, facilities and larger roads to take the traffic impact.
