The provision of new and the linking of existing green routes will be supported, as will improvements in access to the Neighbourhood Area’s blue infrastructure network. The recreation of river corridors and wetland habitats, and the reinstating of open waterways from river culverts, will be supported.

New developments and future Green Corridor improvement work in close proximity to the River Thames and other ordinary watercourses/water bodies should be designed to integrate and improve access to the blue infrastructure network

Proposals should explore opportunities to recreate river corridors and wetland habitats in urban areas through:

  • the design of site layouts, setting development back, allowing space for water, habitat, wildlife and recreation;
  • reinstating the natural open waterway within existing culverted reaches of the river(s).
