Garden cities planned

by danielbarker on 14 April, 2014

Under Liberal Democrat plans, three new garden cities will be built in the countryside between Oxford and Cambridge. Nick Clegg, the Deputy PM, will say in the new Lib Dem manifesto that the new garden cities, which will have at least 15,000 new homes, will provide a solution to the “chronic” housing shortfall. The prospectus invites councils to put forward proposals for new garden cities with the support of their local communities. It states that they must be “ambitious” in scale, have good transport links, and be able to draw on private funding.
