There is no requirement to update the boundaries of the Regeneration Corridors as they are fit for purpose and meet their intended purpose of encouraging growth within these areas. Notwithstanding, it is appreciated that evidence currently suggests that 22-25,000 new homes and 300ha of new employment land will be required outwith of these Regeneration Corridors, especially given the likely increase cost for releasing, remediating and developing brownfield sites within these areas. Indeed, the Issues and Options document has already identified that Green Belt land will need to be released to meet housing need up to 2036.
