Thurrock Council We the residents and councillors of Chafford Hundred object to the proposal to remove the weight limit from Devonshire Road. The weight limit has only been in place for 2 years and it was put in place to protect residents lives and properties. We think the proposal is a waste of tax payers money as a full consultation about this was undertaken 2 years ago before the weight limit was installed. The Council has not explained the rationale behind this new consultation so soon after the previous one. The Council is yet to produce any police stats or traffic delay figures to evidence the reason for the new consultation. It therefore leads to one conclusion, that the aim is politically driven and we strongly object to tax payers money being wasted for political gain. We object to the proposal and to the absolute waste of tax payers money. Cllr Tunde Ojetola Cllr Garry Hague Cllr Steve Veryard Cllr Neil Rockliffe

The sheer weight of this support shows Thurrock Council exactly how fed up we are with their transparent political games. They thought they could sneak this through without pushback but they were dead wrong.

Ridiculous idea. We already went through this 2 years ago and got it sorted. Leave it alone!

Complete waste of time and cash. Fix the potholes instead of creating problems where there arent any.

The lorries are already a nightmare around here. Leaving the road as is just makes sense. Why waste our money on this again?

It is way too dangerous with the kids walking to school. Keep the weight limit.

So much for caring about the residents. Just another way to burn through our council tax for nothing.
