Issues and Options for the Ipswich Local Plan Review

Representation ID: 24683

Received: 18/10/2017

Respondent: Mr Chris Wheeler

Representation Summary:

There is a big opportunity to enhance rail services in the area by redualling the line section between Woodbridge and Saxmundham. With the new rail fleet due in 2019 the service can be made more frequent and of better quality, and with the promised through services from Lowestoft to Liverpool Street settlements close to the line could become more attractive housing areas, enhancing local economies. Redualling of the line would also enable freight services into Sizewell C.
