Thurrock, Essex- Investment Opportunities
Sitting firmly within the Thames Gateway, Thurrock is situated in the south west of Essex and borders the north bank of the River Thames. Thurrock is the gateway to London with easy access to both Kent and Essex via the M25 motorway and the QE II Bridge - the longest cable-stayed bridge in Europe.
This thriving area encompasses huge swathes
of greenbelt country and along its 18 miles (29
km) of Thames frontage are many important
marshland wildlife habitats. The area’s unique
riverside location and vast natural resources are
the key to its past and future development, growth
and success.
Thurrock’s proximity to London presents a great opportunity for economic growth and prosperity, which is gradually being realised through initiatives such as The Royal Opera House.
The Royal Opera House relocated its set production facility to the High House site in Purfleet, Thurrock, and with it comes a huge boost for the local community and an opportunity to expand the creative industries in the area. Thurrock is also committed to delivering 26,000 new jobs and 18,500 new homes.
