The Bristol Port Company - Joh… | 05 Dec 2018 | 1. North Somerset Local Plan 2036: Issues and Options Document Employment Q35. What would help to attract more businesses to invest and grow here?
In relation to future development at Portbury, we have consistently objected to the assessment by NSC of our development needs at RPD, which are immediate and compelling. Our requirement for additional land today is acute and, put simply, at times of peak demand we have insufficient land to service the constantly increasing demands of our customers. We note that the development of land for employment provides direct and indirect jobs and income for local authorities through business rates.

Businesses in the modern economy also need efficient digital connectivity and this should be a priority.
