Green Belt in The Royal Borough of Kingston upon Thames

In United Kingdom town planning, the green belt is a policy for controlling urban growth. The idea is for a ring of countryside where urbanisation will be resisted for the foreseeable future, maintaining an area where agriculture, forestry and outdoor leisure can be expected to prevail. The fundamental aim of green belt policy is to prevent urban sprawl by keeping land permanently open, and consequently the most important attribute of green belts is their openness. The Metropolitan Green Belt around London was first proposed by the Greater London Regional Planning Committee in 1935. The Town and Country Planning Act 1947 then allowed local authorities to include green belt proposals in their development plans. This dataset (Green Belt located in the South of the Borough) plays an important part in keeping land open and free from development.

在英国的城市规划中，绿色防护带是一项旨在控制城市扩张的政策。其构想是在乡村环绕形成一圈，以抗拒未来可预见的城市化进程，保持一个农业、林业和户外休闲活动得以盛行的区域。绿色防护带政策的根本目的是通过永久保持土地的开放状态来防止城市蔓延，因此，绿色防护带最重要的特性是其开放性。伦敦的大都市绿色防护带最早由大伦敦区域规划委员会于1935年提出。随后，1947年的城乡规划法案允许地方政府在其发展计划中纳入绿色防护带的提议。本数据集（位于该区南部的绿色防护带）在保持土地开放和不被开发方面发挥着重要作用。伦敦的大都市绿色防护带最早由大伦敦区域规划委员会于1935年提出。随后，1947年的城乡规划法案允许地方政府在其发展计划中纳入绿色防护带的提议。本数据集（位于该区南部的绿色防护带）在保持土地开放和不被开发方面发挥着重要作用。
