I am á concerned owner of a cottage built in the 1800s , I’m of an age where most people don’t really take notice 69yrs +, this road will spoil ( for me anyway) living in this village . As a teenager born and bred in SouthOckendon I aspired to live in this tranquil village , I managed to do this in 2001 and hope to end my days here . I believe the upheaval of this road going through Orsett will impact my life to the point I will consider moving , it’s not just the end result of the road but the traffic going through the infrastructure already in place whilst the building of this road is taking place , basically you are going to spoil my last years here in Orsett, most probably the last years of my life , I’m only one voice but thanks for that !!! I’ve worked 50yrs as a precision engineer, inside a factory all of those years now you are going to spoil the tranquility of this village I call home , I’ve earnt my bit of peace and quiet, don’t you think ?
