Zoning

G4 — Open space

Open space and recreational amenity, to be preserved as such.

N6 — Strategic infrastructure

Land tied to a national or strategic asset (airport, port, rail corridor). Uses are controlled by that asset's own plan.

R3 — Rural cluster

A small rural settlement where only modest infill serving local need is envisaged.

N1.5 — Airport

Tied to the efficient operation and development of the airport under its own plan — which also means aircraft noise contours apply.

R1 — New residential

Zoned for new residential communities. This is where large housing schemes are expected to go, subject to the social and physical infrastructure arriving with them.
