William Hunter Way Car Park
Any development on WHW should include the same number of parking spaces, examples can be seen in Hyde Park and Chelmsford.

I previously suggested free access to the back of the station and the taxi rank at the back with a covered walkway to the car park, this would prevent parking on the access road. If this had been negotiated with Crossrail it would have eliminated the need for the dangerous obelisk under the bridge for cyclists to negotiate. It would also enable drop-off and parking for elderly/disabled people.
One more disaster is the development at Mountnessing roundabout where the council has approved the high density development adjacent to the A12 with its CO2 gas density, subsequent health issues.
