Strategic Locations for Growth - Eastern Growth Zone

It is highly likely that the locations identified for growth and regeneration in the adopted Core Strategy are still the most suitable and sustainable for new development. The Growth Zones the Council has previously identified are shown on the map below. But more land in new locations is needed for more development and to replace developable land used up since 2011.

The Eastern Transport Corridor has opened up significant new tracts of land for development and regeneration to its north and south, especially at the urban fringe. Recent investment at Lingfield Point, including the Millfields housing area indicate the potential of this area, and we envisage that development of the wider area for employment and housing uses will accelerate. There are still local and strategic highway issues to resolve, but these are not expected to be show stoppers.
