flag Thurrock Council plans to sell £30M in idle properties to cut debt and borrowing.

flag Thurrock Council plans to sell £30 million in non-operational assets, including vacant land and underused properties across six wards, to boost finances and reduce debt. flag The sales, expected to raise £29.6 million in 2025/26, aim to cut borrowing, eliminate maintenance costs, and end legal liabilities. flag Two business centers in Tilbury and Grays may also be sold, as they generate insufficient income to cover long-term expenses. flag Government-appointed commissioners stress the need for transparent, value-driven sales with independent valuations. flag This follows prior sales of retail parades and South Essex College.
