We're in the middle of some fundamental changes in the way we design and develop our urban spaces.
The government's decision to introduce legislation creating urban development authorities (UDAs) is just one of these changes - and it could have huge consequences for the way we design our cities and towns.
Local councils have an important role to play here, and it's this role we're exploring in our latest publication. Our report looks at what makes for a successful UDA, how they can be financed and their broader role in creating great outcomes for our communities.
