Strategic Growth Options

Representation ID: 4059

Received: 12/02/2015

Respondent: Mr Richard Massett

Representation Summary:

The A127 area does not provide greater potential for growth. The Fenland character is just as important as farmland in the rest of the Borough. Its character is greatly appreciated by residents and it is an important wildlife habitat.
The A127 is heavily congested and there is little scope to increase capacity in this area without adversely affecting the environment of residents.
The key area for development in Brentwood should be close to the main Crossrail station at Shenfield.
Crossrail will be the driver for future housing demand in the Borough
