  • South Woodham Ferrers Town Council Masterplan Site 10 – Land North of South Woodham Ferrers Policy Board (14Th January 2021) Submission
    South Woodham Ferrers Town Council Masterplan Site 10 – Land North of South Woodham Ferrers Policy Board (14th January 2021) Submission The Town Council welcomes the opportunity to comment on this Masterplan for this development, so far: - • We are impressed with the layout and green focus of the development and the amount of open space that is being provided. • We fully support and are pleased with the commitment from the developers to ensure the whole site is constructed to Essex Vernacular design standards, in keeping with the rest of the town. • We have noted the changes to the public transport commitments, and we are pleased that a (5 year) expansion of the 36 service, including its through journey to Broomfield Hospital, as well as enhanced links to Basildon, are now part of the Masterplan submission. We are a little disappointed that the proposals do not address the need for a more direct bus service to Maldon, especially as the submission appears to promote a bus stop at Eve’s Corner in Danbury as some major Maldon-South Woodham Ferrers-Chelmsford interchange station. The Town Council raises the following points that we believe require further clarity and understanding. • We feel the pedestrian crossing of the Burnham Road for senior school pupils still remains unsafe and we would like to see more thought and consideration for safer crossings to be examined. • We believe the new primary school should be constructed and brought into operational use as soon as possible as this will reduce crosstown car journeys, a problem already identified by the submission from Essex Highways.
