    Essex Rail Strategy 2006-2011 and Beyond now we’removing informing, engaging and inspiring Foreword Essex Rail Strategy – 2006-2011 and Beyond ‘I cannot think of a higher priority for the County Council than for it to strive to achieve a first class highways and transportation system for all who live in, work in or visit the county of Essex. The challenges in front of us are enormous. Over 130,000 new homes are being proposed for Essex and its borders with surrounding authorities, the travel needs of which will have a direct impact on the transport network in Essex. All aspects of passenger transport will play a key role in delivering this vision. The County Council has therefore produced three daughter strategies to support the Local Transport Plan, focusing on how passenger transport will contribute towards a fully integrated transport network. The Road Passenger Transport, Bus Information and Rail Strategies outline the ways in which we intend to improve the lives of Essex people by addressing traffic growth, road congestion and improving public transport. They contain measures aimed at improving options for travel and access to services to develop a more effective transport network. To produce the strategies the County Council has consulted widely at regional, district and parish level, with key service providers, a wide range of user groups and the general public so that collectively they represent a tangible commitment by Essex County Council to make our County a better place to live and work and to support a decent public transport network. I am committed to delivering a transport system that meets the challenges we face in Essex and look forward to working in partnership with stakeholders to bring about the transformation we now need.’ Councillor Rodney L.
