Preferred Site Allocations 2018

Representation ID: 19737

Received: 12/03/2018

Respondent: Countryside Properties

Agent: Andrew Martin Planning Ltd

Representation Summary:

The proposals are a failed attempt at a cross boundary development with Basildon. Previous links to the railway station and access via the existing built up area of Basildon, including public transport links, are now uncertain. The draft proposals to date (Government Bid document, 2017) show access to the proposed development site via the A128 and the intention to use the railway station at West Horndon. The construction of up to 4,000 new homes and all supporting infrastructure cannot be accommodated on the land available and would in any event create unacceptable impact on the existing settlement of West Horndon.
