Developer Contributions for Transport Infrastructure

Developers are required to contribute to new or improved transport infrastructure based on site accessibility needs, with greater contributions expected for sites away from town centres.

Where a development necessitates the provision of additional transport infrastructure, including new or improved public transport services, developers will be required to bear the costs of these works. Contributions from developers will be based around securing improved accessibility to sites by all modes, with the emphasis on maximising access by public transport, walking and cycling. It is anticipated that developers will be expected to contribute more to improving access to development by these modes in locations away from town centres and major transport interchanges, than for development in more central sites. The details of developer requirements will depend on the individual circumstances of each site and the precise nature of the proposal.
