CS2/8.27: We agree that easy access to jobs, goods and services by sustainable modes is important for sustainability. The Northern Fringe is not located within easy access of new centres of employment. Residents will need to commute to employment outside the Borough or across town, as there is no direct public transport available and it is too far for most to walk or cycle. Multi-site development of the entire Northern Fringe from the outset will undermine urban regeneration efforts. CS2 directs major new retail development to the Central Shopping Area but the only development has been at Futura Park.
