As your a civil servant could you explain why the road did not come up in a 25 year search , we have lived here for over 15 years and nothing come up in the search from the solicitors. This major road infraructure was in plan for many years just like the airport to be built in kent, back in the 70s . Also why do you need to take so much land of the farmers, the noise from the m25 is over 1mile away when the new road is built it will be 1/2 mile away ,weres the noise from the traffic going to go , will most of the aggregate taken out be reused on site to eliminate pollution from tipper Lorrys transporting it away. Why can't the area of land adjacent to ours be used as a compound for vehicles and then re claimed for a nature park as it is Dump left by the former GLC . We all now it is a done deal but why couldn't it of gone through canvey ,the road is now a tunnel ,Kent would be far reachable for many and canvey would get the infraructure they nead ,I've even asked a member of there council and they got declined , instantly ,option C has always been the main one ,many thanks john
