Green Infrastructure (GI) is vital to the quality of life and business in the Borough of North Tyneside. Recognising its importance, the Council has prepared this strategy to sustain and enhance GI. The strategy identifies the opportunities for planning and implementing GI in the Borough, where investment in GI will support the growth of North Tyneside and deliver the widest public benefits, environmental improvements and the enhancement of the Borough’s economy. It supports and informs North Tyneside’s Local Plan, the Borough’s 15 year planning framework and it’s Infrastructure Delivery Plan.
