The spatial strategy plan at paragraph 70 of the Submission Draft illustrates Arden Cross intersected by HS2 within the UKC Hub Area and removed from the Green Belt. This is welcomed and strongly supported by ACL.
The spatial strategy should distinguish more clearly between economic and housing growth and how both have been accommodated. It should identify Growth Option E (UK Central Hub Area and HS2) as a core component of the spatial strategy, as this is a strategic choice to capitalise on the arrival of HS2 and to support the key economic assets in this area.
This would bring the spatial strategy more into line with paragraph 35(b) of the NPPF
