Eco-towns: Living a Greener Future.
Filed under: Networks News Transport
The Department for Communities and Local Government has recently released a consultation document entitled Eco-towns: Living a Greener Future. It lays out plans to build up to ten new towns along ecologically-sustainable principles. Fifteen sites throughout England have been short-listed.
The document can be downloaded or ordered free of charge by clicking here.
Part five gives details of the fifteen short-listed sites: readers are urged to have a look at this. As completely new developments, many of the sites may result in extensive increases in transport demand. Although the guidance on transport issues appears strong, the siting of many of the proposals appears likely to gen erate significant quantities of long and medium distance trips. One may live near one of the sites, and may wish to get involved in the local planning consultation process. Please get in contact with me if you have any questions: chris.peck@ctc.org.uk .
