Ateb
Atebwyd gan Minister for Climate Change
The Welsh Government considers the introduction of Green Infrastructure into town centres to be central to successful place making and is now a fundamental part of projects supported under our Transforming Towns programmes. A range of Green Infrastructure interventions have already been supported, including pocket parks in Penarth and Newport town centres and a pop up parklet in Cardiff Castle.
The Welsh Government has actively encouraged all local authorities to initiate Green Infrastructure audits of their town centres to ensure they continue to look for ways to incorporate the greening of our town and city centres into all of their projects. Furthermore, our published Building Better Places document focuses on key areas of Planning Policy Wales, including the importance of green spaces, encouraging the creation of new spaces, and improving people’s access to green space.
