Strategic Growth Options

Representation ID: 4604

Received: 16/02/2015

Respondent: J. Littlechild

Representation Summary:

Given the scale of development proposed within the A127 Corridor, whilst there will be priorities, the development will require infrastructure spending across all categories (education, healthcare, transport, green space, community facilities, flood relief). Failure to provide any one element of this infrastructure will have a materially negative impact on both existing resident, and the new development. As such, whilst there may be priorities in areas where development is expected to be lower/less significant, in areas expected to see high levels of development, a holistic infrastructure plan needs to be delivered to ensure the development is undertaken in a sustainable manner.
