North of Lowestoft Garden Village, Suffolk
Masterplanning / Residential

Following completion of the Masterplan Document Bluepencil were appointed to prepare an outline application for up to 1300 homes,  employment land, neighbourhood centre, school and public open space including a SANG.

The Vision For North of Lowestoft garden Village is set out in The Masterplan (see link below). The new neighbourhood will provide a network of green corridors that are a defining feature and will act as arteries, providing recreation spaces and movement routes, connecting residents to a vibrant local centre and to the existing infrastructure of the surrounding area.

The local centre will provide for the essential needs of the community and provide a central multi-functional public space that encourages social interaction within the community and compliments the facilities at the proposed new primary school and pre school setting.

Walking, cycling and public transport will be prioritised over the car, promoting sustainable modes of transport and health and well being through active and healthy lifestyles for both new and existing residents.

Multi-functional open space will provide a high quality accessible green infrastructure network that protects and enhances existing vegetation, habitats, and achieves biodiversity net gain.

Building standards will be raised and will achieve adaptable and climate resilient design, which will drive down the carbon footprint of this development in response to the decision to call a Climate Emergency in the County and District.
