Draft Local Plan-Part 2 Site Allocations

Representation ID: 20487

Received: 08/03/2020

Respondent: Mr Richard Woods

Representation Summary:

The Deal Ground offers the opportunity for Norwich to have a vibrant gateway to the Norfolk and Suffolk Broads National Park.

The southern rivers of the network have the potential for greater use for tourism, supporting jobs and local economies from Norwich and as far as Beccles. Broom recently ceased boat building just down the river in Brundall.

The yacht station on Riverside road is adequate but not a particularly appealing place to be resident for one or more nights. There is opportunity for visitor moorings, properties with private moorings and commercial facilities with a focus on the boating community.
