Green infrastructure strategy
Following consultation on the draft green infrastructure strategy in 2020, Epping Forest District Council’s green infrastructure strategy was formally adopted as a material planning consideration in April 2021. The green infrastructure strategy focusses on the future use of existing, and introduction of new open spaces in the district to form a network of multi-purpose spaces for both people and wildlife to thrive.
