East Riding of Yorkshire Council adopted the Land to the North of Bridlington Masterplan Supplementary Planning Document (SPD) on 12 December 2017.

The masterplan has been prepared to guide the development of housing allocations BRID-A and BRID-B, which are identified in the local plan allocations document. These sites are allocated to provide around 1,400 new homes over an area of approximately 56 hectares. This represents one of the key areas of housing growth within the local plan.

Important issues, on which the masterplan provides further guidance, include:

• the provision of a link road through the site

• improving foot, cycle and public transport access

• landscaping and integration of development with the Yorkshire Wolds

• maintaining important panoramic viewpoints towards the town and the sea

• the provision of public open space, including children's play areas and playing pitches

•housing mix and design, including appropriate densities, layout and materials.

The SPD will be an important material consideration in the determination of planning applications on these sites.

Copies of the documents are available for inspection on the council’s website at www.eastriding.gov.uk/spd.
