My dad [Redacted] and lives near the Tilbury area so I am concerned about increased air pollution. Thurrock already breaches the WHO recommended safe levels of air pollution/particulate matter. I don't want my dad's life span shortened by this project (which by Highways England's own estimes will still leave the Dartford Crossing over capacity) and there being more deaths like young Ella Kissi-Debrah who was the first person in the UK to have air pollution on her death certificate as the high levels in Lewisham contributed to her fatal asthma attack ten years ago.
