_bThe answer to a nation's housing shortage?
260 _c2015
520 _aCalls for an intensification of the density of existing housing settlements rather than construction of garden cities which they argue are unsustainable and damaging . Argues that under current plans garden cities will only provide a small amount of the housing required to meet the existing shortfall. Also criticises the developments for consuming large amounts of green space, depleting agricultural land and bring with them excessive dependence on cars and buses. Urges on the focus of new homes to be built in existing towns and cities, closer to where people live and work.
