•Strong long term vision shared by partners
•Public sector leadership (political and officers)
•Bold statements of change
•Stewardship of public realm
•Building on strengths
•Investment in key anchor civic facilities
•Retail not the main focus
•Community engagement

41. Five Strategic Objectives
PLACES OF WORK
Increase the town
centre's profile as a
place to do
business, enable the
creation of attractive
workspaces (incl
shops and market
stalls) and create
more jobs
By focusing on
creating a stronger
business, leisure
and retail offer in the
town centre's core
area
HOUSING DELIVERY
Provide a wider choice
of quality good value
homes
By providing, through a
London Housing Zone,
a range of affordable
and convenient sites for
development and
making Barking a
desirable place to live
which further supports
town centre prosperity
EAST
LONDON'S
CULTURAL HUB
Promote the
creative industries
and participation
in arts and culture
By offering a
range of
affordable spaces
and empowering
people to boost
their creative
skills
ACCESSIBILITY
Improve the transport
infrastructure and
provide convenient
access to the town
centre
By investing in making
travel, movement and
the street scene in
and around the town
centre more attractive,
safe, convenient and
enjoyable
PLACE MAKING
Continue to improve
the quality of
buildings, spaces,
valuing heritage,
engaging people and
the diverse
communities in
Barking's future
By making places
more attractive for a
wide range of people
and creating new
reasons to visit
