Chelmsford is a new City and is growing rapidly. We have outstanding schools, homes, shops and much going on. We need world class infrastructure to match this. As a former infrastructure financier, I am committed to campaigning for better infrastructure for Chelmsford.
I recently visited Chelmsford Prison. I have always been concerned about levels of violence in our prison, particularly the risk of violence against officers. I was pleased to hear that improvements have been made since my last visit.
