Over the next thirty or so years, a new Garden Community will be created on the Tendring Colchester Border. This community will eventually feature between 7,000 and 9,000 homes, as well as employment spaces to accommodate new businesses and jobs.

The community will need to include all the services and facilities that people will need, including new nurseries, primary and secondary schools, health facilities, and community facilities, including sports and leisure. It will need to be carefully designed to fit in to the existing landscape, protecting the things that are important, whilst also providing new and improved green spaces, parks and areas for play.

Whilst the project will include many things for people who already live, work and travel through the area today, it is very much about creating a community for the future. It will need to look ahead to the needs of young people of today, for our children, and our children’s children.
