Its customers include residents, local businesses, and communities, with a focus on improving housing supply, transport efficiency, air quality, and access to green spaces while protecting heritage. It operates within the government administration sector, positioning itself as a local governance body responsible for sustainable urban development in Southampton and the wider region. Recent developments include a partnership with Network Rail to support a bid for government funding to replace the ageing Northam Rail Bridge.
