London Southend Airport & Environs Joint Area Action Plan Issues & Options Paper
Representation ID: 1878
Received: 06/08/2008
Respondent: London Southend Airport
In assessing the strategic fit against the objective of maximising the economic benefits of a thriving airport and related activity, the low probability of achieving the passenger forecasts and the limited number of airport-related jobs would suggest that this could be only a low strategic fit.
On the other hand, when assessing this scenario against the objective of ensuring appropriate improvements in sustainable transport accessibility and facilities, there would need to be much greater provision of public transport, cycling, walking or travel planning to the increased employment areas to achieve a high strategic fit.
