Representation ID: 22498

Received: 18/03/2019

Respondent: Essex County Council

Sound? No

Duty to co-operate? Yes

Representation Summary:

Currently it is unclear how access to the site can be achieved directly from J29 of the M25 as a consequence of the Lower Thames Crossing improvements to this junction, which includes a segregated left turn slip road from the A127 to M25 southbound. BBC therefore need to demonstrate that suitable access arrangements for all modes of travel can be achieved, including appropriate mitigation/improvements. BBC should also demonstrate what discussions have taken place with Highways England, ECC as Highway Authority, and the site promoter to ensure that access arrangements are deliverable and agreed.

Change suggested by respondent:
