Chantelle has a vision for South Essex. She is a student at Aveley school and does not want anymore motorways built where she lives. Instead she would prefer a tunnel of love. Chantelle wants to build the tunnel between Aveley and South Ockendon to unite the towns and the people who live there. She thinks if the M25 did not run between the two towns they would have developed to become one place, but as the M25 is not going to move out the way a tunnel of love will have to do. Chantelle came up with idea in the Billboard Lab, which is spending eight weeks in the playground of her school and is the idea of Thurrock Creative Partnerships It is designed to get young people in South Essex thinking about regeneration and how they would like their area to change as part of the Thames Gateway project. BBC reporter Andy Gordon went to see what Chantelle is planning. You can watch his film about the "Tunnel of Love" by clicking on the link below. |
