Draft Greater Norwich Local Plan – Part 1 The Strategy

Representation ID: 21736

Received: 16/03/2020

Respondent: Brown & Co

Representation Summary:

We support the approach to infrastructure.
The proposed new settlement Honingham Thorpe would provide on site infrastructure solutions from day one, including shops and a school, to support sustainability. The proposed development would allow for purpose built infrastructure to be provided, opposed to the retrofitting of existing overstretched infrastructure and the associated disruption for existing communities.
The Greater Norwich Local Plan Infrastructure Needs Report indicates that some local infrastructure is already over capacity, notably a number of substations. Additional information should be provided as to how carried forward and new allocations in these areas would overcome to ensure timely delivery.
