Respondent: Southend Borough Council - 2050 Safe and Well
The internet and technological advances should reduce the need for people to commute to office based jobs , so we were surprised to see the anticipated need for increased office space into the future reported by the EDNA in section 3. The Council’s experience is that we are currently consolidating our space requirements.
Electric cars are going to become more prevalent and eventually the norm, although the more that we can provide genuinely effective alternatives to reliance on the car through effective public transport that meets people’s needs, the better this will be on a range of outcomes.
