Planning for Growth: Aligning the Greater Nottingham Core Strategy and Local Transport Plans Grant Butterworth Nottingham City Council April 2010

Why alignment of planning and transport is important? Horizon scanning, forward looking activity : positive placemaking Successful planning process draws people into articulating, shaping and thinking about how to deliver visions And identifies key areas, resources and activities to drive transformation

Context : Government’s Expectations for Planning, Housing and Transport (Low Carbon Transition Plan) 18% carbon reduction by 2020 And then 80% carbon reduction by 2050……. 52,000 new homes across Gtr Nottingham by 2026

National Targets (transport) Low Carbon Transition Plan: -14% reduction in carbon emissions by % transport energy by renewables by 2020 Decarbonise transport by 2050

Geography Lesson: Why Plan at Housing Market Area level? GNP excludes Erewash…. Housing Market Area is - best logical fit… - fits with Local Transport Plan work - is Govt’s unit of choice

Core Strategy Development plan to 2026 (replace existing Local Plan) Conurbation wide process (Housing Market Area) Seeks to Balance land allocations between: Housing Open space Employment Sits under : Regional Spatial Strategy (Govt) ‘Sustainable Community Strategy’ (City Wide)
