Medway needs to deliver this amount of housing to meet the needs of the future (the definition of sustainability!). Density around transport hubs!
The figures are achievable if town centre masterplans are created. There're many under utilised spaces. There are many surface carparks. Chatham dockside retail park- could be 100s of homes with the parking managed in MSCPs. Alternatively, look at Rainham which has multiple car dealerships on the highstreet.
These businesses should be on industrial parks in Medway. The sites can then be filled with 3-4 storey homes/ apartment blocks in the local vernacular.
