LAND SECURITIES 
By 17 March 2014
Land Securities welcomes the Government's announcement that it will be consulting on the creation of an Urban Development Corporation for Ebbsfleet Valley. The new arrangements should make it easier, quicker and cheaper to deliver a new garden city at Ebbsfleet and provide thousands of much needed new homes in the south-east. Parts of Ebbsfleet Valley today still resemble a quarry (its former use) and significant further investment is needed before homes can be built at scale - Government support, through a new UDC, will therefore be vital in delivering a garden city quickly.
