RAF Halton Supplementary Planning Document (SPD) consultation

Overview

We want your views on the draft RAF Halton Supplementary Planning Document.

Supplementary planning documents provide guidance on policies in the adopted local plans in Buckinghamshire and should be read in conjunction with the local plan to which they relate.

They are a material consideration when determining planning applications.

RAF Halton Supplementary Planning Document

The RAF Halton Supplementary Planning Document sets out our plan for an attractive neighbourhood that reflects the sites’ military and cultural heritage and connection to the Chilterns Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.  

Built to a high sustainable design and construction standards, the development will provide a balanced mix of facilities to ensure that it meets the needs and aspirations of new and existing residents, including: 

• at least 1000 homes 
• new primary school  
• a mixed use local centre including a community hall 
• creation, enhancement and restoration of woodland, parkland and open spaces 
• improved pedestrian and cycling connectivity across the site and to the wider area 
• the reuse or conversion of existing listed and historical buildings
