Would be good to see reference to other key GI opportunities such as Wensum Parkway - a major GI opportunity within the city centre. Broadland Way and the Green Loop should also be included. The Green Loop offers potential to provide car free access to the County Park at Horsford via Marriott's Way.

In particular the way that any new and existing GI could be linked via active travel routes and public transport. Effective delivery of doorstep greenspace should also be included. This has become of particular interest during lockdown with many people needing to access outdoor spec close to where they live. There should also be careful consideration of the sustainable funding for long term management of these spaces.
