2. Development of the site should be consistent with the principles as shown in the concept masterplan, which include:
i. Retention of important landscape features and the setting of heritage assets (to include the existing green corridor created by the old line of Knowle bypass);

The longstanding, reserved line of Knowle bypass has over a period of 50 plus years created an established green corridor which is vital to wildlife in the area. This should be considered and maintained in any proposed development as supported by the Council's strategy for wildlife ways through the borough.
Reference Page 101 of the Draft Infrastructure Delivery Plan 5.1 Natural & Semi-Natural Green Spaces which deals with these issues specifically: Enhance existing green corridors and Encourage the incorporation of green infrastructure in new developments.
