1.4.3 <strong>Green</strong> <strong>Infrastructure</strong> Situational Analysis<br />

The Stakeholder Group and the preliminary results of the <strong>Green</strong> Space Audit for the<br />

LDP identified a number of strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats (SWOT)<br />

associated with the provision of green and blue spaces within the district.<br />

The SWOT analysis (Appendix 3) will inform the micro considerations associated with<br />

the GI <strong>Plan</strong>, for example, to expand the greenway network and increase the quantity<br />

and quality of green spaces.<br />

Also, the political, economic, social/cultural, technological, environmental and legal<br />

(PESTEL) macro considerations were reviewed by a PESTEL analysis (Appendix 3)<br />

associated with the GI <strong>Plan</strong>. For example, the effects of BREXIT and the City Deal.<br />

Collectively, these tools allowed a comprehensive review of internal and external<br />

factors, known as a Situational Analysis. These will be appraised, to form the GI<br />

Action <strong>Plan</strong> (Part 2). Subsequently, a decision matrix analysis tool will be applied to<br />

define the appropriate priority actions.<br />
