Draft Greater Norwich Local Plan – Part 1 The Strategy

Representation ID: 19863

More emphasis needs to be placed on alternative means of transport or at the very least ways of carbon offsetting. For instance including a rewilding project on the vast amount of surrounding agricultural land. A more cohesive plan for sustainable development is sadly lacking.
