Representation Summary:

Spatial Strategy - vision and strategic objectives.
It is clearly stated that Brentwood has two key transit corridors. However the first names of these - the central Brentwood Growth Corridor with the A12, the Great Eastern mainline to London Liverpool Street station and the Elizabeth Line/Crossrail - has nit been appropriately or adequately explored from a strategic, resilience and sustainability viewpoint in providing areas for housing and industrial development.
This has meant undue reliance has been placed on the southern Brentwood Growth Corridor with the vast majority of proposed housing and industrial development being placed in the southern most part of Brentwood - namely West Horndon Parish.
A disjointed plan that does not meet strategic needs and will create transport chaos.
To fully explore the opportunities provided by the central Brentwood growth corridor in accordance with National Planning Policy Guidelines and not rely on the statement that Brentwood is a borough of villages.

Change suggested by respondent:
