Representation ID: 20487

Received: 29/01/2009

Respondent: Robertsbridge Enterprise Group

Representation Summary:

REG in the main supports the overall aims set out here, but would wish to see a specific aim to support and encourage greater energy efficiency and local production of energy from sustainable sources. However each of the specific aims should be taken out and applied specifically to the need of especially the two villages identified as Rural Service Centres, Robertsbridge and Ticehurst.

We support the main aims here but would wish emphasis to be placed on the rebalancing the local economy against out-commuting, which is not really dealt with at all.

Box 26 - Preferred Strategy for Economy

Representation ID: 20490

Received: 29/01/2009

Respondent: Robertsbridge Enterprise Group

Representation Summary:

We believe more resources need to be devoted to the support of tourism in general but green tourism in particular. Much greater emphasis needs to be placed for instance on working with the rail companies to improve the station facilities, facilitate specific tourist offers, ensure that offers can be produced to stimulate traffic for the rail companies and take up locally of tourism opportunities.

13. Transport and Accessibility

Representation ID: 20492

Received: 29/01/2009

Respondent: Robertsbridge Enterprise Group

Representation Summary:

We believe that the strategy you advocate regarding rail infrastructure improvements is wrong, at least for those who depend upon the Hastings - Charing Cross line. As stated we do see advantages in ensuring that travel down that particular line is made as accessible and pleasant as possible.
