The points I wish to make are in relation to how the construction and subsequent operation of the Lower Thames Crossing and associated road network are going to impact on my health and wellbeing. I live in close proximity to the proposed junction of the A13 A1089 and new road, also where the 6 lane new road crosses from the junction through Chadwell St Mary, and also close to the proposed link road from the Orsett Cock roundabout. I am gravely concerned about the environmental and personal impact of light, noise and air pollution that will arise from the development, both during and after construction. In particular I am worried about air quality[Redacted] and I am not alone in this as Thurrock has one of the highest incidences of respiratory and cardiovascular disease in the country. To put it bluntly, the LTC is going to ruin lives and cost people their lives.
