The Spatial Framework will support sustainable economic growth and environment improvement, with the long-term vision to enhance job creation, protect green spaces and invest in people’s health and wellbeing – creating exemplars for green development that will inspire communities around the world.
The Arc Universities Group welcomes this co-ordinated, collaborative approach and we are looking forward to working with national and local Government, the Arc Leadership Group, LEPS, industry. and the local community to shape the vision for the region.
