Developing the Plans

There have been some important milestones in progressing and developing the plan for Woodberry Down, and these include:

The purpose of the Area Action Plan was  to set out broad planning policies and guidelines for the area, to ensure that the redevelopment fits in with Council policies.

The Urban Design Framework is a key document which is being used to guide the regeneration programme for Woodberry Down.  

A Masterplan is a plan of plans. It is a plan that shows where the buildings, roads and parks will go. But it is also much more than that. It looks at the environmental aspects of the scheme such as rainwater disposal, sunlight and daylight, ecology, traffic, noise, pollution and energy use. It will also assess the education, health, shops and leisure provision to make sure that the new housing will be well supported.
