To combat urban sprawl and green belt destruction, urban redevelopment should work with the existing public transport to deliver not only medium, but high rise residential. High rise developments with architectural merit would bring local, regional, national and international focus and investment to the towns. Strood, with arguably less historic value compared with Rochester and Chatham could see sustainable high rise developments which would enjoy the beautiful vista of Rochester, Chatham, All Saints Church and following the river up and down stream. With excellent rail and road connections Strood could be a modern gateway with plenty of residential accommodation.
