Regardless of which Strategy Option is selected, they all offer potential to help deliver improvements to open space or sport facility accessibility/provision. Smaller developments offer the potential to make financial contributions towards off-site strategic priorities while the options that provide for larger developments provide opportunities for on-site provision in the form of new playing fields and strategic open spaces like country parks, shared use of new school facilities and providing accessibility improvements e.g. joining up footpath/cycleway networks and providing access to the countryside.
