Policy NE9.2 Green Infrastructure Network

Proposals must demonstrate how they will appropriately conserve, restore, expand or enhance the green infrastructure network, including how the site connects with the wider network. Development should protect the function and amenity of green routes, including public rights of way. Existing trees, woodlands and hedgerows should be retained wherever possible. If loss is demonstrated as being unavoidable, appropriate replacement or compensation will be required with native species being prioritised. Priorities for green infrastructure focus on the projects identified in the Green Infrastructure Plan. Green infrastructure as defined on the Policies Map will be protected.
