- New parks and play areas for all ages
- Indoor and outdoor sports facilities
- Safe places to walk and cycle
Places to learn and inspire
- Two new early years and two primary schools
- A secondary school
Places to thrive and engage
- Cafés and restaurants to meet, eat and drink

- Woodlands, wetlands, grassland and space for nature
Places to work
