Havering remain concerned about the cumulative transport implications of further development in the A12 corridor with a potential adverse impact on Havering's section of the A12, the A127 and the rest of Havering's road network. This is underlined by the Brentwood SA which expresses traffic congestion and air pollution concerns on both the A12 and A127 corridors. Havering is especially concerned about the likelihood that the proposed development sites will add to the existing congestion and road safety problems at the Gallows corner intersection of the A12, the A127 and Main Road (A118). Recomend liaise and consult with TfL regarding the A127 and other main routes and key junctions inside Havering.

Object to the Enterprise Park because of the potentially significant transport implications and adverse impact on Haverings section of the A127, which is already at or close to capacity in the peak periods in both directions.

Concerned about adverse impact on the Green Belt, the proposal will significantly increase the quantum of development on the site and therefore impact on the function of the Green Belt and its openess.

It is noted that the extent of development proposed has ben reduced and that each authority are now progressing their own proposals. However, Havering stongly oppose the Dunton Garden Suburb concept and concerns relating to transport, congestion and harm to the character and openess of the Green Belt still apply.

Dunton Hills GV will result in a significant development within the Green Belt, whilst the Draft Local Plan states that the site can contribute to the Green Belt purposes it is not demonstrated how. Havwering therefore find it more likely that development will have a negative effect on the Green Belt purposes.

It is recognised that the option to join the seperate allocations in each borough to form a cross boundary urban extenion is still being explored, but this does not form part of the current plans as they cannot be fully justified by evidence at this point in time. Havering welcomes this decision but strongly opposes any consideration being given to this option now or in the future.

The A12 and A127 are the responsibility of TfL within Havering and both roads are essential elements of hte highway infrastructure of Havering and are fundamental to traffic being able to travel both within and to and from the borough safely and conveniently. Both highways are heavily traffickes and Havering considerusing these routes linked to development in Brentwood will adversely affect traffic flows and have a detrimental imapct on the environment, particularly Gallows Corner and the A127 road entering Havering.
