Hollow Lane - Barrier Gate Across road (CM1)

The request was successful.

Dear Essex County Council,

Having already contacted Chelmsford City Council, they have said you are the relevant body to contact.

There has been a gate installed across the width of Hollow Lane adjacent to the new Copperfield Place housing development as part of the agreement with Persimmon to build houses there. In recent months the gate has been locked and closed to traffic.

Please send copies of all documents that were part of this installation.

Additionally:
Who agreed the width of the gate and how was that decision made?
Who installed the lock on the gate and who holds the key to it?
Why has a standard (Wilko) padlock been used and not a Fire Brigade lock?
Who determines when the gate is to be locked or opened (for temporary traffic use)?
Has emergency services been advised that they are unable to use this gate due to the lock installed?
Who is now responsible for the gate?

Yours faithfully,

Darren Johnson & Tanya Ghoumrassi
