The proposed Settlement Hierarchy and the identification of the UEA as part of the Norwich Urban Area is supported. The UEA is a world class research university, being a leader in creative writing, life and environmental sciences. The presence of the UEA in Norwich has significantly contributed to Norwich’s recent economic, social and cultural growth. The UEA’s presence has enabled Norwich to attract many young, skilled workers to the area and, importantly, helped retain them locally.
Therefore, the UEA support the scale of growth directed to the Norwich Urban Area, including 4,395 new dwellings. Development on GNLP0133-C and GNLP0133-E will help to support and meet a particular area of housing growth
in the Norwich Urban Area.
