Sustainable Growth

National Highways welcomes the modification to Policy SDS1.2 (MM5), which strengthens the emphasis on directing housing to locations with the highest levels of sustainable transport accessibility and applying minimum densities. Locating development near rail stations, metro stops and public transport hubs supports reduced car dependency and can help manage demand on the SRN. Continued emphasis on high‑quality multimodal connectivity and parking restraint will be important to ensuring these outcomes are realised.
