There will come a time when we need a high speed rail connection to just get out of the urban environment if urbanisation isn't distributed throughout the country not just in the South East.
In addition to my specific concerns raised within the strategy document on the council's portal I would like to address the matter personally.
Urbanising the area within Brentwood, Ingrave, Herongate and Hutton would be to the detriment of the character and value of the area.
I strongly object to the proposal. I chose to buy in Ingrave because of the Green Land, Natural habitat and village environment of the area and building many homes would ruin the area.
There are many areas that have greater potential for development not only within Essex but nationally and these areas should be optimised before destroying yet more of our countryside and nature habitats.
