I believe the consultation has been flawed because I have attended several meetings and have had bridge experts fail to explain tunnel issues at each meeting. I have asked fo an expert who can discuss the HE health impact assessment. I was told one would be done but I cannot find it published. In my view this tunnel and bridge will not relieve congestion on the m25 it will just move it from the bridge to Brentwood and m11. The maps supplied by HE are not to accurate scale and prevent clarity of how close the pollution will be caused, by the new road, to schools and residential areas. HE are proposing to building a motorway standard road with smart traffic technology which has been halted on motorways. HA appear to be trying to circumvent this ban by designating the tunnel road as an A road, when clearly it will be built and used as a smart motorway.
