North Arran Way Cluster

The Story So Far

In 2005, we worked with residents to develop a Neighbourhood Plan for this area. This Plan was approved in draft by the Council in November 2005. In March 2006 we sent local residents a Phasing Plan showing the order in which changes would take place.

In 2007 we developed through consultation the North Area Strategy. The purpose of local area strategies is to supplement the Strategic framework and take forward the principles of the Strategic Framework, allowing early activity in locations where a master plan will not be produced for a number of years.

In 2009 the NSP had to review its regeneration programme in light of the national economic recession. This resulted in the development sites NAW 12, 15, 17, 19 and 20 being removed from the programme.

In January 2011 the NSP had to carry out a further review of its regeneration programme due to major cuts in government funding. This resulted in NAW 14 and 16 being removed from the programme.

We have completed a number of milestones in the transformation of this neighbourhood:

  • Neighbourhood Plan approved - 2005
  • Approx 200 new homes have been built, with a further 64 in progress (Jun 2010)
  • Planning Application for Village Centre approved click here for the latest information
  • Smiths Wood Community Primary School completed Feb 2009
