  • Selecting other key locations for appropriate development.
  • Protecting the built and natural environment of Slough, including the suburbs
  • Accommodating the proposed third runway at Heathrow and mitigating its impact (See Accommodating growth at Heathrow- proposals for Colnbrook and Poyle)
  • Promoting the northern expansion of Slough in the form of a ‘Garden Suburb (See Atkins- Slough Northern Extension Report and the Wider Growth Study)
