The benefits outlined regarding health, wellbeing, biodiversity, and economic gains from accessible greenspaces are aspirational but currently unsound within the context of Medway’s existing infrastructure. Without affordable transport options, visitors are forced to rely on already congested roads, exacerbating traffic burdens rather than alleviating them. Additionally, the absence of safe, well-lit pathways that do not contradict or disrupt the natural or lived environment severely limits access by sustainable means, undermining the potential for assumed benefits. Until deficiencies are addressed in a way that respects the character of the area, the plan’s projections are not realistic or deliverable.
