This crossing wouldn’t solve the problems suffered in Thurrock, which gets gridlocked when there are accidents or breakdowns. There are a lack of connections and local traffic is unable to move due to traffic trying all local routes and estates. There is a massive impact to air quality and the crossing will only make these issues worse.Noise pollution will increase. Loss of farmland, impact on woodland and trees, wildlife and protected species. Divide the area of Thurrock in two, destruction of homes and properties. Total waste of over 10bn +, false economy and not value for money. Many years of construction work that by the time it’s finished will not solve any of the problems! Safety issues if it becomes a ‘Smart’ motorway. Increase carbon emissions, I would like to register so that I can attend meetings and be kept updated with the planning! After living in my home for 46 years I would like to be aware of what is happening!
