Gloucester and Cheltenham are two independent towns so close together that for the purposes of the ConnectedCities methodology are treated as a single ConnectedCity with two hub towns
Developing within the 1km radius 15 Minute Neighbourhoods of existing and potential new stations could accommodate an additional 250,000 persons, all within walking distance of a rail station
The new housing requirement up to 2031 are:
Gloucester, Cheltenham, Tewkesbury Joint Core Strategy (JCS) 2017 - 35,175 dwellings or approximately 84,000 persons
Stroud District Local Plan 2015 - 11,4000 dwellings or approximately 27,000 persons
ConnectedCities believes that a longer vision to 2050 and 2080 is essential for effective planning, allowing for new settlements if required. We use as a guide the pro-rata percentage of the ONS anticipated UK population growth to 2081
Using either system the ConnectedCity can easily accommodate the anticipated growth sustainably
Potential Capacity of 15 Minute Neighbourhoods around existing and potential new stations
Town growth Zones around existing stations - New Green Quarter around new stations on the edge of existing towns - New Green Towns around new stations on the line
