The term ‘big’ should be defined further in the text to avoid ambiguity.
Concerns over the reliance on the private car will lessen as the plan progresses owing to the uptake in electric vehicles displacing petrol/diesel cars and the replacement of fossil fuels by 2035 as part of the UK Government’s Net Zero Strategy. Whilst this could be considered as part of the review of the Plan (once adopted) it is an important consideration which may impact the strategy of the whole plan particularly in respect of development within rural areas.
