Local Development Framework

The study was led by Tribal and Campbell Reith. Commissioned to follow on from the Appraisal of Sustainable Urban Extensions Study (2008), this study focuses on the non Principal Urban Area of Greater Nottingham, assessing settlements and general locations for their suitability to accommodate new housing growth in terms of infrastructure capacity, transport accessibility etc. This study utilises the latest available evidence, most notably the findings of the Accessible Settlements Study which assesses the level of accessibility of existing settlements to facilities and services.

The conclusions of the Sustainable Locations for Growth will be used to inform the location of housing sites.  This is consistent with the approach taken by other Greater Nottingham authorities through the preparation of the emerging Aligned Core Strategies.
