Policy Map
The Development Plan Document (DPD) Policies Map visually illustrates the geographic extent of the policies in the plan. It identifies the site allocation boundary and proposed land uses, including the principle developable area, a country park and strategic green gaps. The Policies Map was adopted alongside the DPD and forms part of the Local Plan for TCBGC. The Policies Map can be found in the DPD, but it can also be explored through this interactive tool.
