Draft Local Plan
Representation ID: 15945
Received: 12/05/2016
Respondent: West Horndon Parish Council
Whilst it is noted that the creation of Brentwood Enterprise Park could create important replacement employment land to help offset the proposed loss of nearly 19 hectares of employment land, WHPC note that the redevelopment of the local industrial estates (sites 020 and 021) would result in a material loss of employment within West Horndon village. Appropriate travel needs to be put in place to ensure that local residents are able to travel to alternative local employment in a sustainable manner (Enterprise Park and wider employment area is not accessible by train, bus or foot from West Horndon at present). Whilst this is mentioned in the Local Draft Plan, no specifics are detailed and it is not clear whether any proposed transport would cover West Horndon.
