Catesby Estates are supportive of the approach laid out in Draft Policy Direction 40. As shown on the Vision Document (Appendix 2) and Concept Masterplan for Land South of Allimore Lane, Alcester, it is proposed to retain and enhance the route of Spittle Brook through the Site with a green and blue infrastructure corridor. It is proposed to create two large wet grassland areas along the Spittle Brook Local Wildlife Site, accommodating wetland scrapes and wildlife ponds to provide net gains in biodiversity and to provide multiple ecological benefits.
SuDS will also form an integral part of the development’s green infrastructure, providing ecological benefits and habitat creation, as well as performing their principal function of controlling and managing the flow of surface water run-off during periods of heavy and persistent rainfall.
7.6 The proposals will deliver a number of landscape benefits, including new Public Open Space, play facilities, recreational routes and a community orchard. New planting will include parkland and avenue tree planting as well as native tree belts.
Therefore, the proposals for Land South of Allimore Lane, Alcester demonstrate that green and blue infrastructure can be incorporated into development in many forms.
