Strategic Growth Options
Representation ID: 12709
Received: 28/04/2015
Respondent: Persimmon Homes Essex
Representation Summary:
The historical undersupply of houses in the area, coupled with a large amount of redevelopment of the existing stock has resulted in a reasonably constrained property market. This has increased house prices out of reach of those starting out on the property ladder. The Council acknowledges that growth in the A12 corridor could be heavily reliant on the redevelopment of brownfield land and as such, unlikely to be developed in the first 5 years of the plan. In addition to the fast rail links into London from both the A12 and A127 growth corridors the areas also benefit from good strategic road links to the M25 and beyond.
