Received: 17/02/2015

Respondent: Mrs Jennifer Crocker

Representation Summary:

In Pilgrims Hatch there is already a considerable amount of housing development within a small area.The proposed sites are 053a/053b/156/159 /Gt009. Hatch Road is the main cut through road between Brentwood & M25 & Ongar and the M11 from the villages and is a very busy, poorly maintained road. To build more houses on these proposed sites (500 has been suggested) would mean a considerable increase in traffic, at least another 500 cars and the road could not sustain it. The local shops would be lost & the local primary school could not cope with the additional pupils.
