Rural Settlement Study
Paragraphs 6.65 to 6.67 Business and
Commercial Floor Space
The Study identifies villages that would particularly benefit from additional local employment opportunities, including Robertsbridge. This has been determined, having regard to economic indicators, summarised in App5 .
Given wider importance of R'bridge, it is important to ensure that employment opportunities continue to be provided, preferably in sustainable locations
close to centre and public transport corridors, in interests of maintaining the wider
sustainability of settlement in the LT. Support is offered for the Study's identification that Robertsbridge should
benefit from additional employment floor space growth as well as housing growth.
