A new tunnel to the east of the existing bridge and tunnel would bring additional pollution to the east of Thurrock to an already high pollution area of south east Essex. Also this end of the borough has already experienced the prolonged effect of Highways England road improvement A13 widening scheme with delayed journey times and the various forms of pollution encountered during and after construction. The replanting of trees was a disaster with Healy any surviving the dry summer of 2022. The site remains an eyesore months after completion and dirt and debris continues to be deposited on the surrounding local roads. We do not want this project to be approved in Thurrock.
