Transport For New houses highlighted existing developments in the vicinity of the locations of the planned garden-villages have been warned on the basis of car use
England ' s New Garden villages, towns and cities run the risk of car-dependent s-stands, with a report.

But research has suggested that The Garden -villages can be a little better than the maligned the edge of town, the stands, the replace actually.
The Government said The Report was unfair, because the settlements were Still in their early stages.
But the researchers said they believed in the 20 garden communities in which they rated today in various stages of planning, would be up to 200,000 households, depending on the journey.
The Report is from the Transport for New houses, a group promoting alternatives to The Car .

But The Report found that:
An author, Jenny Raggett, said: “garden villages were put forward, as an alternative to face numerous stands, But you can also end up with more Asphalt than The Garden . "
you said that This Was particularly unfortunate, as, a move that was encouraged by the Government .
- Walking and Cycling would be easier, well maintained and decorated, routes, and pathsSteve Gooding, Rac Foundation Director, said: "The Vision is laudable, But is overlooked in great danger. The reality looks set to woodchip Wallpaper car-dependence.
“Many of us Still desire to own and use our cars... But we don't want to be forced to get behind The Wheel for every trip we make. "
The authors of The Report Singled Out Long Marston, a proposal for a 3,500-home garden village in Warwickshire. As a former airfield, it was categorized as a "brownfield" site, which helps to secure planning consent.
The developer, the prospectus said: “Long Marston Airfield opportunities To Live , work and socialize, all within 10 Minutes from the historic Stratford. "
The authors of The Report agreed The Trip to Stratford was, in fact, 10 Minutes – as long as you had a car.
they said there was no evidence The Village would create employment, and they believed it would not be large enough to provide a full range of facilities.
Mike Emett, Cala Homes , told Bbc News : "It is on a brownfield site in the countryside, so that it is, by definition, not in the vicinity of a city.
"We have a debate, The Settlement will be large enough to support higher institutions, such as the higher school".
homes with little or no garden space were highlighted, as against the ethos of The Garden -village-or town -- A Government spokesman said: “Many of these settlements are in their early stages, and we will continue to work with local partners to provide The Right infrastructure. "
He Said the majority of New Garden communities on Greenfield sites have More Than 40% of their area in green space accessible to all by Walking and Cycling.
