ALT Aerial view of a suburban development site with a quote from Ben Plowden: “Updates to the National Planning Policy Framework which encourage more developments around existing and planned public transport networks are welcome, but we need to ensure that locations are not just selected on the vague and undefined basis of being “well-connected”. Developments need to be built next to good-quality, high-capacity, integrated public transport and walking, cycling and wheeling networks which are available to new residents from day one to be truly sustainable and avoid creating yet more car-dependent communities.”
