The new draft NPPF seeks to progress a vision-led approach to transport planning, but the guidance to support it has only been consulted upon with local authorities. As for the draft NPPF itself, there is a new approach to the "severe" test, and the Government wants more development around railway stations, but is suggesting it be limited to 800m.
In this fourth episode of the 'NPPF Flashpoint' series, Christopher Young KC and James Corbet Burcher are joined by Phil Jones (Chairman of PJA, a key author of Manual for Streets (2007) and the lead author for Manual for Streets 2 (2010)) to discuss these issues.
