Turning our vision for Thurrock into reality is a step by step process. We started by developing the strategic goals and measures of success in the Regeneration Framework and then created a Spatial Plan setting out our policies and proposals for Thurrock. This was followed by Master Plans for key hubs such as Grays Town Centre. The Master Plans outlined issues and options for how the area might develop and involved two rounds of consultation. This allowed us to produce more detailed plans for particular projects.

Once our Master Plans are approved we have to bring individual projects to life. We produce a Development Brief, Design Brief or Development Framework, as appropriate that provide detailed proposals and guidance for planning applications.  

The Development Corporation can acquire land and have already done this for a number of projects. We market to developers and encourage them to put forward plans that will deliver our vision. We also attract private sector investors and prepare sites so that they are ready for development.

The Development Corporation are moving plans from the drawing board to reality, others are well on course for delivery.

We would like to hear your views on the Corporation’s processes and invite your comments on future projects.
