Did you know that Doncaster has 65 different woodlands which cover an area in excess of 521 hectares? That’s about the equivalent to over 1,000 football pitches. There are 88 different formal open spaces across the borough, which include football, rugby and cricket pitches, greens, courts and athletics tracks. Doncaster is also home to 12 golf courses. The Trans-Pennine Trail passes through Doncaster and is integral to the extensive footpath and cycle network that link the borough’s communities with the countryside, jobs and recreation opportunities.

Potteric Carr Nature Reserve is a fantastic Councillor Christine Mills resource which is famed for its wetland birds and lies just to the south-east of the centre of Portfolio Holder for Environment & Waste, Doncaster. The Don Gorge Project is maximising Doncaster Council, April 2014 Executive Summary This is the Doncaster Green Infrastructure Strategy 2014 – 2028, Making Doncaster a Greener, Healthier, more Attractive Borough. This adoption version of the Strategy has been informed by extensive public consultation to ensure it reflects the key priorities and projects for the Doncaster Borough. A separate Consultation Summary report is published alongside this Strategy setting out further detail of the stages involved in arriving at this adoption version. Green infrastructure is a network of multi-purpose spaces that provide the opportunity for the co- ordination and delivery of environmental improvements that also offer numerous socio-economic benefits, such as encouraging inward investment and improving quality of life. A successful network helps to create a safe and accessible environment, mitigate climate change, reduce traffic noise and exhaust pollution, provides opportunities for sport and recreation, and protects and enhances our historic and natural environment. The Strategy sets out our overall approach for delivering an integrated network of high quality green spaces, habitats and landscapes across the borough and has been prepared in partnership with a range of stakeholders. The Strategy runs to 2028 in line with the Local Development Framework Core Strategy, but the Strategy will need to be reviewed frequently to ensure the aims and objectives are being met to help deliver the vision. The Strategy identifies particular funding and implementation opportunities, which include the vital work of Council partners and voluntary groups who invest significant time and resources into the borough’s green infrastructure assets ensuring they can be enjoyed by people across the borough. The Strategy looks at five green infrastructure themes. It looks at the valuable contribution each theme makes towards green infrastructure as well as the current situation and where we are going in relation to each one, before setting out a number of principles and actions for the future. These are: Theme 1 – Biodiversity & Geodiversity: Theme 2 – Trees & woodlands; Theme 3 – Green space; Theme 4 – Green routes; and, Theme 5 – Historic environment. Chapter 4 identifies the borough’s green infrastructure corridors, as well as a number of strategic project areas, before making a number of recommendations by Neighbourhood Area which will eventually form a series of delivery and action plans (Chapter 5). These delivery and action plans are currently being worked up into a finer grain of detail, including the identification of key projects which will be informed from the feedback from stakeholders and partners from the various stages of consultation already undertaken on this Strategy. The Council would like to take this opportunity to thank all the stakeholders and relevant parties that have taken the opportunity to feed into this important Strategy for the Borough. Any comments or further feedback that may be relevant for the rolling five year delivery action plans, and/or future review of this Strategy, are always welcomed and can be made via any of the contact details contained on the Council’s Green Infrastructure Strategy homepage, available via: www.doncaster.gov.uk/greeninfrastructure Service Improvement & Policy (Regeneration & Environment) Doncaster Council, April 2014 1 Foreword Executive Summary Contents Chapter 1: Introduction pg. 3 - What is the purpose of this strategy? - What is green infrastructure? - What is it made up of? - What are the functions? - Why invest in green infrastructure? - Green Infrastructure Strategy context Chapter 2: Our Overall Approach to Green Infrastructure pg. 23 - Vision & aims - Implementation - Monitoring Chapter 3: Doncaster’s Five Green Infrastructure Themes pg. 30 - Theme 1: Biodiversity & geodiversity - Theme 2: Trees & woodlands - Theme 3: Green spaces - Theme 4: Green routes - Theme 5: Historic environment Chapter 4: Green Infrastructure Corridors & Project Areas pg. 67 - Green infrastructure corridors - Strategic green infrastructure project areas Chapter 5: Findings & Recommendations (by Neighbourhood Area) pg. 78 - Central Area - North Area - East Area - South West Area Glossary of Terms pg. 99 Appendix 1: Green Space Types/Categories pg. 102 Appendix 2: Green Infrastructure Corridors Methodology pg. 104 2 Chapter 1: Introduction - What is the purpose of this strategy? - What is green infrastructure? - What is it made up of? - What are the functions? - Why invest in green infrastructure? - Green infrastructure strategy context Above: View from Conisbrough Viaduct 3 What is the purpose of this strategy? 1.1 The Doncaster Green Infrastructure Strategy sets out our overall approach for delivering an integrated network of high quality green spaces, habitats and landscapes across the borough and has been prepared in partnership with a range of stakeholders. Specifically, the Green Infrastructure Strategy: provides a coordinated approach to the planning and delivery of green infrastructure over the long term; highlights the issues, opportunities, threats and priorities relating to different types of green infrastructure where there are gaps or areas of need; integrates and combines relevant strategies that cover the green aspects of our environment into one overarching framework; sets out our green infrastructure standards in relation to quantity, accessibility, quality and value; sets out key principles that will guide the provision of green infrastructure to ensure it is embedded into the design of new development and adds value to the place-making process; and, acts as a basis for rolling five-year delivery and action plans. 1.2 The strategy will run to 2028 , but will need to be frequently reviewed to ensure the aims and objectives are being delivered. What is green infrastructure? 1.3 Green infrastructure is a planned network of multi-purpose spaces and routes that provide the opportunity for coordination and delivery of a wide range of environmental improvements that can also deliver multiple socio-economic benefits to an area, such as stimulating investment and improving quality of life. A successful network helps to create a safe and accessible environment, mitigate climate change (e.g. by reducing surface water run-off and providing urban cooling), reduce traffic noise
