M11 Rail Freight Depots

The Council will work with the County Council, Railtrack, the Strategic Rail Authority and railfreight operators to ensure that the potential for transfer of freight movements from road to rail is maximised. The Council will identify and where appropriate protect sites which could be critical in developing infrastructure for the movement of freight, and support the establishment of railfreight terminals taking into account local employment uses, environmental impact and the suitability of the local road network to accommodate collection and distribution vehicles.
