Strategic Growth Options

Representation ID: 3866

Respondent: Bruce Seymour

Representation Summary:

Whilst I broadly agree with the areas specified there is a danger of sprawl if the existing urban areas are simply extended. For example Pilgrims Hatch could be absorbed into the town and lose its identity if the strips of land next to the A12 are developed. From Hatch Road towards Doddinghurst has more of the character of area A than the A12 corridor.
