Draft Bradford District Local Plan - Preferred Options (Regulation 18) February 2021

Representation ID: 29096

Received: 29/03/2021

Respondent: Historic England

Representation Summary:

We welcome (para5.1.22) to the significant investment that has already been made in the city centre public realm over the past ten years and to plans for further major public realm schemes for the city centre in the future. Where appropriate, Historic England would welcome involvement in defining these proposals.
Whilst we support the key strategic growth direction which encourages the sensitive integration of new housing growth within Little Germany with strong connectivity to the existing built form, this stipulation should also be extended to development proposals within the Cathedral Quarter.
Local Plan Strategy and Plan – Forster Square, Little Germany and Cathedral Quarter, amend the second key strategic growth direction as follows:
‘The sensitive integration of new housing growth within Little Germany and the Cathedral Quarter with strong connectivity to the existing built form.’
