Respondent: Mr Luke Giles
Representation Summary:
Yes. Whilst local shops need to be provided at the village level, primary "destination" shopping locations should be focused within existing town centres.
Town Centre First retail development must also be accompanied (or preferably, preceded by) appropriate infrastructure improvements including regular and reliable public transport to all areas (including the more rural ones), car parking facilities, and improvements to the road network to prevent unmanageable congestion.
