Density and Urban Form in Town Centres and High Accessibility Areas
High density residential development such as apartments or town houses is normally acceptable in town and city centres or on sites with high quality public transport access. Development proposals will be assessed based on location context and overall quality of the residential environment created.
In town and city centres or on sites which benefit from high accessibility to public transport facilities, where a high quality and frequent service is available, high density development, such as apartments or town houses, will normally be acceptable.
