The government is placing increasing emphasis on the importance of infrastructure planning.
BBC is preparing an Infrastructure Delivery Plan to understand better current facilities that are in the Borough and to identify where new ones will be needed. This is not yet available to inform the selection of a spatial strategy for growth in the Borough. In the absence of this, we consider that the potential exists at West Horndon to develop land adjacent to the existing settlement that builds upon the strengths of the village and adds to its existing services and facilities. The land is already readily accessible to public transport services and facilities, transport benefits for the existing community can further be maximized by economies of scale.
