In July 2017, EFDC published a list of new and amended sites which are to be considered for inclusion in the Local Plan

In Buckhurst Hill there are two new sites, Victoria House, Victoria Road IG9 5EX, and land at Lower Queens Road, IG9 6DS (we don't yet have details of exactly where is meant), and one amendment, the Queens Road Car Park has been expanded by land to the rear of 16 Forest Edge and 7 Briar Close IG9 5EF.

The full list is

(The land at Lower Queens Road, IG9 6DS is mistakenly labelled as an amendment)

EFDC have not yet responded to comments made about the existing sites in the Local Plan, and it is not clear if a new Public Consultation on the new sites will have to take place.
