Agent: National Gas Transmission

National Gas Transmission advocates the high standards of design and sustainable development forms promoted through national planning policy and understands that contemporary planning and urban design agenda require a creative approach to new development around underground gas transmission pipelines and other National Gas Transmission assets.

Therefore, to ensure that Design Policy DLP39 is consistent with national policy we would request the inclusion of a policy strand such as:

“x. taking a comprehensive and co-ordinated approach to development including respecting existing site constraints including utilities situated within sites.”
