Arborfield Garrison - Future

Future

It was announced in July 2011 by the British Defence Secretary Dr Liam Fox that RAF Lyneham will be the new site of the Defence Technical Training Change Programme centre (DTTCP). This coincides with the closure of Arborfield Garrison, and The School of Electrical and Mechanical Engineering (SEME) at Bordon, both of which are due to move to RAF Lyneham by 2015.

Under current plans the land will be sold to Wokingham District Council who wish to develop the land which will include 3,500 houses, retail units and a Secondary School.

Famous quotes containing the word future:

    [With the Union saved] its form of government is saved to the world; its beloved history, and cherished memories, are vindicated; and its happy future fully assured, and rendered inconceivably grand.
    Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)

    All that grave weight of America
    Cancelled! Like Greece and Rome.
    The future in ruins!
    Louis Simpson (b. 1923)

    Although I’m trying very hard
    To sound unlike a birthday card,
    That’s all this is: so you may find it
    Full of all that lies behind it
    Admiration; friendship too;
    And hope that in the future you
    Reap ever richer revenue.
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
