Economic development and Employment Strategy for Northstowe
Following on from an earlier Strategic Sustainability Review and ongoing housing market, employment and demographic analysis, BBP was commissioned jointly by English Partnerships and Gallagher Estates to prepare an economic development and employment strategy for Northstowe new town. The work considered issues such as connectivity, trends in home-working, the desire to achieve a sustainable balance of local jobs and housing, and the role that Northstowe will play in the context of the rapidly growing Cambridge Sub-region. Working with SQW and Cambridge Econometrics, research and analysis was provided to contribute to the emerging masterplan and planning application for a New Town of up to 10,000 homes.
