Representation Summary:

To support Medway’s future as a thriving maritime hub, site allocations should include wharf access and open storage land alongside factory and office space. Marine freight operations like Scotline rely on river frontage and large open areas for efficient cargo handling. Including these in the plan will help retain skilled jobs, reduce road transport, and strengthen Medway’s role in sustainable logistics.
