* An alternative approach:
A more dispersed growth model can be used to efficiently use existing infrastructure capacity possibly with little intervention whereas large development will inevitably require greater use of investment in needing to solve problems created by the development. With a revised hierarchy of development (Figure 5.4) as suggested above together with a strategic aim to provide growth in transport corridors, this would favour a Strategic policy based on:
- Increased and intensified development in existing developed areas
- Development of brownfield sites in Green Belt adjoining existing urban areas and within reach of services
- Extensions of existing development into Green field sites based on their appropriateness to services facilities transport and other infrastructure
- Medium scale allocations at the place with railway stations: Ingatestone, Shenfield and West Horndon.
