Opposition to Stort Valley crossing proposals

Early day motion 336, tabled 19 July 2021 by Robert Halfon (Conservative). Signed by 2 members.

That this House understands concerns about the impacts that the Stort crossing proposals will have upon the beautiful environment of the Stort Valley in Harlow constituency; further understands the threat that those proposals pose to local wildlife and ecosystems; recognises the concerns about those proposals raised by hundreds of local residents; further recognises that the plans for that problematic development have been inherited from the previous Labour Council who agreed to the proposals in the 2020 Local Plan; notes that Harlow Conservative Councillors voted against the 2020 Local Plan; and calls on the Government to put pressure onto the developers to reassess those plans and go back to the drawing board.

Signatures by party: Conservative 1, DUP 1.
