Infrastructure, utilities and broadband are all issues that need addressing to attract investment on allocated employment land. Speculative builds need confidence they will be able to access the site and have sufficient broadband and utilities. This is a particular concern for rural businesses. Our members tell us that they now consider the broadband speeds when looking to occupy a new premise. Broadband and utility providers are less interested in supporting developments on a smaller scale. Rural businesses particularly suffer from lack of suitable broadband, as well as accessibility. This needs to be considered when developing employment opportunities in rural areas.
