Countryside support the proposed policy aspiration. A concern is however raised on part of the wording of this policy. The policy states that ‘developers will be required to contribute to improvements to public and community transport and to deliver new and improved sustainable active travel connections for non-motorised users including for equestrians appropriate to the scale and nature of the proposal.’ This policy wording suggests that all developments will be required to deliver improvements, and clarity should therefore be provided on the types and thresholds of development that would trigger this requirement.
