Remove site R19 from plan

The evidence base is flawed:
The transport Assessment is inaccurate as it has excluded traffic along Priests Lane, and was taken at times which excluded a large proportion of school traffic, despite Council assurances that a traffic assessment would be done for Priests Lane.
The Transport Assessment does not account for the increased usage of Priests Lane from the proposed development of 1000 houses in Shenfield travelling to the A127, nor does it account for the impact of the Elizabeth Line.
The Plan fails to address safety of residents : the technical submissions residents that new road accesses along Priests Lane are hazardous have not been addressed, nor concerns that the road design is dangerous for increased traffic movements.
The site does not meet relevant sustainability conditions, notably access, transport network, mitigation of impact on local services, and unacceptable effect on health due to increased pollution.
The Priests Lane sites have been rejected previously because the land was deemed a valuable open urban space.
No account has been made of the increased pollution along Middleton Hall Lane and Priests Lane, the junction of which is a pollution hotspot.
The Lane was never meant to be a main distributary road which it has now become. Residents have pointed out that as such it does not comply with the Essex Design Guide with respect to road and pavement width.
Local Plans should address not only housing but traffic concerns, health care and education needs.
The sustainability review refers to traffic as a concern, but no mitigation options have been identified.
No specific or robust argument has been made that a viable access point is possible.
When considered against reasonable alternatives these sites cannot be deemed justified and there is nowhere in the plan which allows for the enhancement of infrastructure as a result of development.
There is no additional provision for increased educational and health needs, the expansion of Hogarth School is to meet current demands and there is already a low level of GPs per head. Schools further afield which may have space will require a car journey to attend, exacerbating the already dire traffic situation.

Needs to remove this proposal completely to take account of increased traffic flow (which is unacceptable), safety of residents, lack of health provisions (doctors' surgeries are already overloaded) and detrimental effect on residents' health due to increased pollution, lack of transport facilities.

Further housing in this area is not sustainable as Priests Lane is a very narrow road. Along with Friars Avenue, it is already used as a rat run between Brentwood and Shenfield and is extremely dangerous with its current traffic - this development would worse the situation. These roads cannot take any more traffic - indeed steps should be taken to reduce traffic. Any development here would remove another small lung of green space, which is gradually being totally eroded in Shenfield.

The number of houses should be reduced significantly to bring it in line with planning policies..

The number of houses is inappropriate as it is much higher density than the neighbourhood, which is contrary to the councils policies. The site is wet and the surrounding areas have surface water problems which will be worsened by overdevelopment.
