The damage on the rural nature of Thurrock and its green belt The air pollution concerns have still not been addressed The fact that the proposals do not address the issues at Dartford The cost vs the benefit The inadequate and large junction at Baker Street The increase of traffic through Orsett Village and surrounding rural roads in Thurrock Lack of protection for village communities such as Orsett, Orsett Heath, Baker Street and Chadwell St Mary The scheme functioning as a M25 by pass which is not needed. The poor consultation with some residents being sent information and others not receiving anything. Poorly designed changes which still do not provide any benefit to Thurrock Carving the Borough of Thurrock in half Lack of proper scrutiny at other options further east which would provide real resilience for South Essex and beyond such as the 'Canvey Option'. The impact of construction on our rural communities The effect on the A13, which is Thurrocks main trunk road, both during construction and once the new scheme is open.
