Dear Resident
As part of the Council’s Integrated Transport Programme, funding has been made available to carry out improvement works to the above road junction.
It has been noted that the main concern to road users is the restricted visibility of approaching traffic, when pulling out of the junction.
In order to address this, it is proposed that a raised junction table is implemented across the junction, incorporating the mini roundabout. This will complement the existing speed reduction measures that are already in place on the approaches to the junction and should further reduce the speed of approaching vehicles.
The restricted visibility is due to the vegetation on the junction. The vegetation has on several occasions, been cut back however it is recognised that a longer term solution is required. Unfortunately this area of land is in private ownership and not the responsibility of the Council.
As part of the works mentioned above, it is proposed that the Council approaches the land owner with a view to seeking permission to remove the vegetation. A land registry search will be carried out in order to identify the current registered owner of the land.
If you have any comments to make on the above proposal could you please contact me Cllr Tunde or any of the other Chafford Councillors
(a) Cllr G Hague
(b) Cllr N Rockliffe
(c) Cllr Steve Veryard
Or directly to
(d) Carew Close Consultation
No later than 2nd October 2009.
The purpose of this personal blogsite is to pass Ward or Thurrock related information across, and to allow residents comment on plans or proposals. Residents suggestions for developments in the community are certainly very welcome.
