High House Production Park: Inspiring Vocations and Delivering Skills for Success High House Production Park: inspiring vocations and delivering skills for success • Employment • Attractiveness of the territory • Urban regeneration • Skills • Education Context Thurrock is a small borough (160,000 inhabitants) located between the English county of Essex and in commuting distance of London. Thurrock is also part of the so-called “green belt” (70% of its territory is classified as such), where urban development borders large countryside areas and farmlands. The area’s economy was traditionally based on industry and other low-skill jobs, covering sectors such as construction, retail, transport and logistics. The area is now being transformed through a growth programme in which the creative and cultural sector plays a key part, with a view to bringing more qualified employment opportunities locally. Thurrock also has a history as a film location: the famous films “Who Framed Roger Rabbit”, “Four Weddings and a Funeral”, “Batman Begins” and “Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade” having been partially shot here. Thurrock’s cultural and creative industries have been identified as priority sectors within Thurrock’s Economic Development and Community Regeneration Strategies. The development of CCIs pursues local development objectives: direct employment of local people, improving perceptions, and profiling the area to attract external investment. Finally, CCI policies are set to inspire vocations among local people for them to gain higher qualifications and enter higher entry-level jobs. In particular, in 2008 Thurrock adopted an Economic Development Strategy which sought to generate growth and higher-skill employment, where CCIs are identified as a high potential sector. CCI are also recognised as a key sector by the South East Local Enterprise Partnership (SELEP), which comprises partnerships between local businesses and local authorities that decide investment priorities to generate growth at local level (and are involved in the management of structural funds). High House Production Park High House Production Park (HHPP) is a new charity Based on these first partnerships and actions, local established to support an international centre of dynamics have significantly accelerated.

  • West Thurrock and South Stifford Ward
    19 Chapter 19: West Thurrock and South Stifford ward This chapter summarises the activities in West Thurrock and South Stifford ward relating to the project’s construction and its operational phase (when the new road is open). It also explains the measures intended to reduce the project’s impacts on local communities. For more information about the assessments in this chapter and other information available during this consultation, see chapter 1, which also includes a map showing all the wards described in this document. West Thurrock and South Stifford ward does not include any elements of the project’s construction or operation. It has been included in our Ward impact summaries because it would experience impacts due to changes in traffic flows at the Dartford Crossing that are a result of the implementation of the Lower Thames Crossing. We predict a reduction in traffic flow at the Dartford Crossing of 21% in 2029, the project’s opening year, which would have an impact on journey times, noise and air quality in this ward. The reduction in traffic at the Dartford Crossing is one of the key objectives of the project. Within this document, we sometimes advise where additional information can be found in other consultation documents, including the Construction update, Operations update, You said, we did, Register of Environmental Actions and Commitments (REAC), Code of Construction Practice (CoCP), Outline Traffic Management Plan for Construction (OTMPfC) and Design principles. To find out more about these documents, see chapter 1. References to these documents provide an indication as to how our proposals to reduce the project’s impacts will be secured within our application for development consent.
