The policy for adapting to environmental change aims to ensure that the city is not unduly vulnerable to future risks, including extreme weather events. This seeks to secure the economic, social and environmental viability of the city in the context of a changing environment. The LDP will also be working with natural environmental processes, for example through promoting the development of green and blue infrastructure and also the use of SuDS, to reduce flood risk and improve water quality.
