Description

Lancaster City Council formally adopted its new Local Plan in July 2020 which included a Strategic Policies & Land Allocations Development Plan Document (DPD) and a reviewed Development Management DPD. Policy SG1 of the Strategic Policies & Land Allocations DPD, entitled 'Lancaster South Broad Location for Growth (including Bailrigg Garden Village)', sets out a commitment for the Council to prepare an Area Action Plan DPD to set a more detail planning framework for growth in this area. The Area Action Plan DPD (AAP DPD) will guide and manage future growth, including the evolution of Bailrigg Garden Village providing detail on delivery and the creation of new cohesive communities in the South Lancaster area.

A key component of achieving sustainable development in the South Lancaster area will be to support and promote the delivery of modal shift, looking to move away from the use of private vehicles to make local journeys towards more sustainable forms of transport, such as cycling, walking and public transport. This should be particularly the case when it comes to local travel movements between the proposed development in South Lancaster and Lancaster City Centre.
