Yes, it is positive that the Council have recognised the need for the Local Plan to consider travel infrastructure that links with Cross Rail including pedestrian, cycle and vehicular transport. It is also positive the Council are currently carrying out further transport modelling to inform this strategy and further assessment will be made of the economic impact of Cross Rail. The results of this modelling will inform what additional transport infrastructure (including car parking) will be required in Shenfield and Brentwood as a result of Cross Rail. It's important that the Council has adequate car parking available to meet the needs and demand of Cross Rail, prior to the proposed opening in 2018.
