I broadly support the policy. However I think like many residents I feel I see little actual delivery of offsite infrastructure following developments. Roads are rarely updated, congested junctions simply get more congested and additional "rat runs" developed. Little in new health provision is made and recent flooding in MiersCourt area of Rainham looks to have had the clock turned back on flood defences.
The council must be quicker and more obvious about it's offsite infrastructure provision in the future and listen to residents concerns earlier and react quicker.

Sport England is supportive of Policy S24. All infrastructure requirements should be based on a sound evidence base. To that end it should be noted that Sport England is in the process with Medway Council in preparing a playing pitch strategy and built facility strategy which should be commissioned in the autumn of this year, 2025, with completing around Easter 2026. There once this work is completed Medway Council will be in a position to request contributions towards sporting infrastructure to support new communities.
