Strategic Growth Options

Representation ID: 4008

Received: 11/02/2015

Respondent: S. Mitchell

Representation Summary:

In the section on the A12 it should be mentioned that the A12 is a better quality road than
the A127 corridor and that improvements from Crossrail will increase rail capacity. This makes the
area suitable for development
In 2.19 It says that the A127 has more scope for improvement. This is a biased interpretation of the
situation. It should say that the A127 is more congested and less well constructed than the A12. It
would require huge sums of money to improve it that are not likely to be available in the timescale
of the present plan.
