["SA15: Transport and Accessibility\nTo reduce the number of journeys made by car, within and to and from the area and improve access to jobs, services and facilities.","Will the policy or proposal:\n•\tUtilise and enhance existing infrastructure?\n•\tHelp to meet local needs locally through low carbon travel options?\n•\tFacilitate safe walking and cycling?\n•\tFacilitate the use of public transport?\n•\tDeliver opportunities to relieve traffic congestion?\n•\tEncourage travel planning for businesses?\n•\tHelp to reduce the distances people have to travel on a regular basis for education, employment and services?\n•\tHelp to improve access to services and facilities for those living in rural or remote settlements, or experiencing other access constraints?\n•\tHelp to support homeworking by residents?","Yes","Direct","Minor Negative","It is anticipated that development within the green belt has potential to increase private vehicle use, through current poor access to sustainable transport modes. This may increase barriers to accessing services and increase reliance on private vehicles.","Yes"]
["SA16: Geology and Soils\nTo minimise water and soil pollution and ensure protection of natural resources including greenfield land, soil, and minerals resources.","Will the policy or proposal:\n•\tUtilise previously developed land?\n•\tSeek to improve or remediate contaminated land or reuse previously developed land which has not been restored?\n•\tProtect soil quality and avoid soil pollution?\n•\tProtect Best and Most Versatile (BMV) Agricultural Land?\n•\tProtect Greenbelt/ Green Wedges land?\n•\tProtect sites safeguarded for mineral workings?","Yes","Direct","Significant Negative","This option utilises green belt and green wedge land, regardless of grey belt designation. This is anticipated to result in significant loss of greenfield land, and may include BMV agricultural land.","Yes"]
["SA17: Waste\nTo minimise the generation of waste and effectively manage waste that is created.","Will the policy or proposal:\n•\tEnhance opportunities for waste to be treated in line with circular economy principles (e.g. recycling, re-using, composting)?\n•\tProvide adequate waste separation facilities in new and existing developments in order to encourage more recycling?\n•\tEncourage the repurposing and refurbishing of buildings, instead of demolition?","Yes","Direct","Minor Negative","The development within green belt and green wedge land is anticipated to result in significant proportions of waste. However, the reuse of brownfield sites has potential to include the reuse of materials.","Yes"]
