Great to be at the Hertfordshire Infrastructure & Development Board meeting this morning at the Riding Stables, Hatfield House. The keynote address looked at the direction the new Government is taking with planning reforms and how the homebuilding drive can be a catalyst for economic recovery. It’s clear that while these changes bring challenges, particularly for us in Hertfordshire, they also open up possibilities for growth and development. #HIDB #Infrastructure #PlanningReform #Homebuilding #BuildingControl #EconomicGrowth #Hertfordshire #BuiltEnvironment

Across the country, highways that were built decades ago now need modernization to serve the needs of growing and changing communities. Over time, many of these roads have become badly mismatched to the way that people use them today, as they serve commercial areas, residential neighborhoods, industrial districts, or areas with an evolving mix of uses. Join USDOT Deputy Secretary Polly Trottenberg and Representative Earl Blumenauer and national and local experts on July 31 at 3:00-4:15 p.m. ET to explore case studies, resources, and Federal funding opportunities that can support the modernization of Legacy Highways as a way to improve safety, spur development and affordable housing investment, and provide better access for everyone using the road.

Are the NSW's fast-track planning measures falling short?    Our team at Urbis has been instrumental in supporting the Regional Housing Flying Squad, helping to determine 27 development applications, resulting in 800 homes in regional areas.    Yet, there's still room for improvement.    Hear from some of our brightest minds, Alaine Roff, Naomi Ryan, and Andrew Harvey, in this insightful article from The Urban Developer, as they discuss the complexities and opportunities in our planning system.    The article looks at the challenges regional councils face due to limited resources and suggest resolutions, such as increased support to expedite approvals and scale housing.    Within it, our team emphasises the importance of efficient development pathways, masterplan approaches for prioritising applications, and the need for diverse, affordable housing.    Potential benefits arising from state government assistance in both assessment and coordination in certain regions are also examined in the article.    Let's shape a future where housing diversity and affordability are at the forefront.    https://lnkd.in/gsYZ9CXT   #UrbanPlanning #Housing #CityShaper

It was fascinating to be involved in Ardent “Building The Future: Regeneration & Land Assembly” Conference last week. One of the most fundamental barriers to addressing the housing crisis is a constant theme of slow and stagnant town centre regeneration. A key driver of change we need to see around this is a Local Authority’s political will (and desire) to use Compulsory Purchase powers in their possession in order to unlock sites, assemble land and thus investment, housing delivery and urban transformation. I am always surprised at how little LA bodies implement this potentially transformation tool at their disposal. I am especially keen to explore this theme in next months UKREiiF when engaging with Public Sector partners, and it is through advocacy and optimism that we start to see a cultural change amongst elected members that moves beyond an often perceived as “short sighted” implications of acting out CP in order to see regeneration enabled, investment capital deployed and much-need housing delivery happen and the endless immense social benefit that comes with that. Fingers crossed. 🤞🤞🤞 #Regeneration #BuildMoreHomes

Please can people write and say they want the railway reopening? It is a shared access of former Bedford and Wellingborough lines. Ironically the Bedford-Northampton rail idea is in their proposed Local Plan. Left hand not know what right hand is doing?! Please remember my new email is richard.brta@gmail.com https://lnkd.in/eyEAQsmV Please write and object to this encroachment on a double track railway corridor denying Northampton ability for direct rails to Bedford/Brighton and all in between and also direct Northampton-Bedford-Cambridge rails too. It is cynical and draconian. Yes, we need development, yes we need housing and brownfield, but to block a rail access when the rail alternative is crying out to rebalance gridlocked congestion and harmful pollution, seems very short sighted. Likewise, we do need Northampton-Market Harborough (N2MHY). Please join us and work with us to keep these options open.

#MiltonKeynes In the spotlight again, who is surprised? The article focuses on the success of our city, growth and jobs. However, we must take pause. With the 2050 plans being developed to further improve the city any additional plans must be considered in collaboration and not silo! As it wastes the resources Town & City Councils have spent on the 2050 plan. There is also a need for a second hospital, which has been planned for years but has not been moved forward with. The increase in population and plans by the Central Government to invest in the north of the authority shows we need to consider the impact on critical infrastructure. The increase in population in a city which is very “car-friendly” would mean an increase in pollution. Serious consideration is needed in building a tram system (similar to Croydon & Manchester). Once again, the MK Conservatives consider an infrastructure-first approach, whilst Labour is building housing in record numbers without critical infrastructure being in place. Johnny Luk also mentioned this in his campaign. https://lnkd.in/ePrjeH3G #MiltonKeynes #MK2050 #Infrastructure #Growth Milton Keynes City Council

Proposals for the future of the Officers’ Mess site at St George’s Barracks in Rutland received a resolution to grant outline consent last month, unlocking this strategic brownfield site to deliver much-need new homes for the county. The Defence Estate Optimisation (DEO) is a £5.1Bn investment Portfolio of interdependent infrastructure programmes aimed at delivering a modern and sustainable Estate for our military to live and train on. This is being achieved through construction activity, unit and personnel moves and land release where Defence sites have been identified as surplus to military requirement. The project to relocate the military working dogs from St. George’s Barracks to Kendrew Barracks will see the site sold for redevelopment, providing opportunities and King’s Foundation benefits to the local community. The significant and sensitive proposals for the Officers’ Mess bring forward an initial 85 new homes, a new village green, new commercial space, pedestrian routes and green spaces. Bringing forward public sector land for development requires exemplary consultation to ensure transparency, openness and community involvement. The King’s Foundation was brought onboard in the early stages to facilitate design workshops to involve the community, drawing together ideas for what development of the site could look like. Further community consultation, both in-person and on-line, and dialogue with Rutland County Council helped to develop the plans before the indicative masterplan for the site was submitted to the Council.
