Phase 1

What will be happening in Phase 1 of the development?

Subject to planning, Phase 1 will involve the construction of over 390 new houses and flats. These will be located in the area of the Fryerns school site to the West of the wooded area (The Green Strip) and on the Glossary Link Craylands Estate along the new east west road. This work will be carried out in four sections, commencing in the western area of the estate. The decant of houses and maisonettes for this work is an ongoing process. However, Basildon Borough Council will endeavour to rehouse tenants to areas of their choice.
