Planning glossary - Suitable Alternative Natural Greenspace (SANG)

Suitable Alternative Natural Greenspaces (SANGs) are existing open spaces that are going to be improved. The aim is to encourage more visitors to enjoy the natural environment of SANGs. We need to reduce the number of visitors to Special Protection Areas (SPAs) so that we can preserve them. By improving SANGs we hope more visitors will use these natural areas instead of SPAs.
