The Core Strategy relies heavily on the delivery of the Bexhill strategic area for the provision of
the majority of its required business floorspace. However, this also depends on the construction
of the Bexhill/Hastings link road. The Preferred Strategy for the Economy does not make
allowances for contingency sites, should the link road fail to be delivered on schedule. The
eastern fringes of Hastings provide a sustainable location for such sites, with good transport
connections, and these would reduce out-commutings

No allocation has been made for business floorspace within Hastings' fringes, and we suggest this be done in collaboration with Hastings BC. We also
suggest the Hastings fringes to accommodate modern industrial units.
