I am a resident of [] which it appears is hugely under threat by different apparent national infrastructure projects .LTC ,Thurrock power ,Tilbury 2 ,D.p.world ,The fact that the new "free port' status has been granted and what that will bring to thurrock .Combined the detrimental effects cumulatively will be immense .Unfortunately for residents each application is considered on an individual basis and not as a cumulative factor on things such as noise ,air and light pollution. This glorified money making amusement Park is NOT national important infrastructure by any means and combined with other developments is just another nail in the coffin of green and clean thurrock . I object on the grounds that the area around the proposed car parks in tilbury do not have sufficient feeder road networks and indeed those that exist have pinch point areas of gridlock which will mean a traffic nightmare on our side of the river .Unless you run a curfew traffic and noise will increase in the area to the direct detriment of local residents .with proposed thousands more visitors where is the " extra health and emergency services capacity " coming from .we have already seen with our local unitary council that they are financially driven with no concern over the residents whatsoever ..There has to my knowledge as a member of the local neighbourhood welcom forum been NO consultation with local residents this side of the Thames..I am assuming that these supe car parks will be lit have cctv have electric charging points available ,rest room ,toilet facilities ,help points with human assistance possible at least one d3fibrilator due to foot fall ,local fire fighting facilities and if you increase even more disruptions to the flood plain even more drainage ditches to reroute water to the Thames. Recently published flood maps suggest strongly that your car parks could be very soon more like a sea life centre than a car park .whilst I am obviously against it for my nimby reasons as we are being enveloped by development .I am also up for reasonable and rationale dialogue to evidence your mitigating factors .can I remind you talking to.the council is NOT talking to the residents ,my evidence to you on this is with the LTC project where LTC wish to exploit and successfully deliver it
