What Does a Well-Connected Train Station Actually Mean for Development? A Data-Led Answer.
The draft NPPF now has a specific, testable definition of "well-connected"—and it opens the door to higher-density development on land that previously had nowhere to go, including in the Green Belt.
But which stations actually qualify? Which land parcels fall within genuine walking distance, not just a radius on a map? And which of those are free from the constraints that would kill a promotion regardless?
LandTech ran the analysis. The results point to nearly 465,000 potential homes hiding in plain sight.
Inside the white paper:
The policy, decoded: exactly what footnote 26 requires and why it matters for site strategy
The methodology: how we moved beyond simple radii to model real walking networks and filter against key constraints
The findings: which LPAs and stations hold the greatest opportunity - nationally ranked
The implications: what NDMPs mean for local authority divergence, and why the window to act is now
