Stanford-le-Hope Level Crossing

Friday June 21 2019 at 6.08. The 5.34 Shoeburyness to London Fenchurch Street (7.00) train which was already the 5th of the morning on this route. They started at 4.06 and the last train into Shoeburyness was at 1.02. This crossing was filmed in 2011 from the other side. The houses on the left immediately over the crossing couldn't be seen then because there was a row of trees. In 2015 the local residents association and local councillor called for signs to be put up asking waiting drivers to switch off their engines. That has not happened. In 2015, just along the tracks, an 18 year old crashed a Fiesta through a fence and onto a track. He was charged with aggravated vehicle taking. Behind the hoarding on the left they are building a 'transport hub' (a new station). 40 seconds of the wait here was cut. About 29,000 people live here and 1,500 use the station each day on average.
