New public open space
New public open space will be provided to the east of the site, including circular walking paths and native planting, on what is currently private land. Strong landscape buffers will be provided around the site boundaries.
Sustainable drainage
Surface water will be managed through Sustainable Drainage Systems (SuDS), including permeable paving, drainage swales and attenuation basins, so that surface water is managed on site and there is no increase in flood risk elsewhere.
Biodiversity net gain
The proposals will deliver a 10% biodiversity net gain, through landscaped public open space and native planting.
Landscape
The proposals are landscape led, with strong landscape buffers, native planting and new public open space on the eastern part of the site.
