Laindon highways under way

Work is now under way on the High Road to change the road layout. The change in road layout is needed to provide access to the development site and build a new, larger Lidl supermarket.

Traffic management will be in place throughout the work to ensure access is always maintained for residents and businesses.

The working hours are 7.30am to 7.30pm Monday to Saturday, and 9am to 4pm on Sundays. Work is expected to take around nine months to complete.

We will try to minimise disruption and apologise in advance for any inconvenience that may be caused.

This is a big step forward for the local community and represents a much anticipated milestone for the project.

Planning update

We proposed some updates to the existing planning permission to Basildon Council for some changes to the regeneration scheme.

The changes included:

• reducing the height of the apartment blocks
• changing the materials on the front of the buildings
• improving the proposed landscaping on the site

Our amendments were approved, marking another major step in the project. We can now move forward with the design of the scheme.
