SIR1: Infrastructure Requirements.
The Council will work with infrastructure and service providers, other statutory bodies and neighbouring local authorities to deliver the timely provision of infrastructure necessary to support development in the Harlow and Gilston Garden Town.
An Infrastructure Delivery Plan (IDP) has been prepared for the Harlow area which identifies and prioritises infrastructure projects required in the Local Plan period and sets out funding mechanisms and lead agencies responsible for their delivery.
The IDP will be regularly reviewed and updated where necessary.
Along with the Local Plan, the IDP will be used to bid for funding for infrastructure items needed to deliver development.
Individual development proposals will be required to secure related infrastructure both on- and off-site necessary to make the development acceptable in accordance with Development Management Policy IN6.
The Policies Map identifies infrastructure items which require safeguarding or have a land use implication. This includes:
| Ref. | Infrastructure Item |
