Martin Terry, Southend councillor in charge in of community safety, said: “I’m relieved that the police have given us assurances that they will have a presence there for the rest of the summer. “If it’s dealt with robustly and the presence is consistently there, I can’t see it being closed again. “We can’t have the seafront like the wild west, what’s been happening is frightening. “We didn’t want to close the seafront, it was forced upon us by these dangerous drivers.” Earlier this month, police officers were injured after objects were thrown at them in a rowdy seafront car meet.

According to the Facebook group, a “specific location will be revealed hours before the event”, planned to start at 6pm. Martin Terry, councillor in charge of community safety, said: “We have to wait for the intel, but if an event like that is going on, it’s almost guaranteed we will see the roads closed again. “We have to put community safety first. Disruption is far better than having a serious injury caused by these drivers.” Mr Terry insisted traders would be given notice of any closures, after frustration circled at the last minute announcement last week.
