The infrastructure of the parish can not support an increase of housing. There is no GP surgery or dentist within the parish and the closest ones are working to full capacity. Major upgrades are needed in the parish for essential utility's. The local school is at capacity. It will increase traffic, poor public transport, inadequate roads and very limited parking. If Brentwood Council would invest into the parish then new housing would work but in its current state unless money is invested into the parish more housing will only cause more problems / strain.
I believe the infrastructure of the parish can not support an increase of housing and my reasons are as follows:
There is no GP surgery or dentist within the parish and the closest ones are working to full capacity.
Major upgrades are needed in the parish for essential utility's (water, gas, electric) plus very poor internet connections with no fibre broadband upgrade until December 2019.
The local school is at capacity
It will increase traffic, poor public transport, inadequate roads and very limited parking.
If Brentwood council would invest into the parish then new housing would work but in its current state unless money is invested into the parish more housing will only cause more problems / strain.
