Community Infrastructure Improvements Through Residential Development
The Council will require new residential development to help deliver improvements in community infrastructure, promote health and wellbeing through well-connected walkable environments, and improve accessibility to open space, leisure facilities, and walking and cycling routes.
The Council also wishes to take the opportunity afforded by new residential development to help deliver improvements in our Borough's community infrastructure and assist in promoting better health and wellbeing. Potential measures include, for example, ensuring the development of well-connected and walkable environments, improving accessibility to local open space and leisure facilities, and improving connectivity to existing walking and cycling routes.
