Zoning
Zoned for office, research and development and high-technology manufacturing.
Land zoned to stay open — parks, playing fields, amenity corridors. Built development is very hard to justify, which also means the view is protected.
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.
Reserved for the schools, creches, community and health facilities a neighbourhood needs.
Protections nearby 250 m
No mapped flood area nearby.
