BDW supports the proposed growth strategy (new settlements, strategic growth locations, and infill development) to ensure a balanced distribution of development throughout the plan period, effectively addressing housing and employment needs. New settlements are long-term projects requiring significant lead-in times (i.e. due to infrastructure), with large sites (2,000+ dwellings) averaging 6.3 years from validation of outline planning application to first completion. Strategic growth locations, due to partially using existing infrastructure, can deliver more rapidly, with sites of 500 to 999 dwellings averaging 5.4 years to first completion. This phased approach ensures consistent housing delivery throughout the plan period.
