A POTENTIAL new link road which would connect two major north Essex roads could be created if ambitious plans are given the go ahead early next year. Bosses at Essex County Council are proposing to join the A133 and the A120 by installing a 50mph duel-carriageway, enabling the creation of a garden community. The garden community plan is an ongoing project between Tendring Council, Colchester Council, and County Hall, which is due to start in 2024. It will be developed on the east of Colchester near the Tendring border and see new homes built and accommodating infrastructure put in place. If approved the new link road, which will be funded by the Government’s Housing Infrastructure Fund, will give future residents access to the A120 and A12.
