The London Plan July 2011 – RTF version or undesirable local urban design outcomes. H The Mayor will identify, in some designated views, situations where the silhouette of a World Heritage Site, or part of a World Heritage Site, should be protected. J LDF preparation Boroughs should reflect the principles of this policy and include all designated views, including the protected vistas, into their Local Development Frameworks. Boroughs may also wish to use the principles of this policy for the designation and management of local views. 7.42 Protected vistas are designed to preserve the viewer’s ability to recognise and appreciate a strategically important landmark from a designated viewing place. Development that exceeds the threshold plane of the landmark viewing corridor will have a negative impact on the viewer’s ability to see the strategically important landmark and is therefore contrary to the London Plan. Development in the foreground, middle ground or background of a view can exceed the threshold plane of a wider setting consultation area if it does not damage the viewer’s ability to recognise and to appreciate the strategically important landmark and if it does not dominate the strategically important landmark in the foreground or middle ground of the view. [Map 7.3 Protected vistas] 7.43 In complying with the requirements of Policies 7.11 and 7.12 development should comply with other policies in this chapter and should not have a negative effect on the surrounding land by way of architecture or relationship with the public realm. 7.44 Protected vistas will be developed in consultation with the Secretary of State. The Mayor will seek the Secretary of State’s agreement to adopt protected vista directions that are in conformity with the London Plan policies and the London View Management Framework SPG. Safety, Security and Resilience to Emergency POLICY 7.13 SAFETY, SECURITY AND RESILIENCE TO EMERGENCY Strategic A The Mayor will work with relevant stakeholders and others to ensure and maintain a safe and secure environment in London that is resilient against emergencies including fire, flood, weather, terrorism and related hazards. Planning decisions B Development proposals should contribute to the minimisation of potential physical risks, including those arising as a result of fire, flood and related hazards. Development should include measures to design out crime that, in proportion to the risk, deter terrorism, assist in the detection of terrorist activity and help defer its effects. LDF preparation C Boroughs should work with the Mayor and other stakeholders to ensure Page 222 of 310
The London Plan July 2011 – RTF version their LDF policies provide for the spatial aspect of London’s emergency plans and safeguard them so that London remains resilient against, and well able to cope with, emergencies, with minimal loss of life or property. 7.45 New development should incorporate fire safety solutions and represent best practice in fire safety planning in both design and management. The London Fire and Emergency Planning Authority (LFEPA) should be consulted early in the design process to ensure major projects and venues have solutions to fire engineering built-in. Flooding issues and designing out the effects of flooding are addressed in Chapter 5. 7.46 Measures to design out crime, including counter terrorism measures, should be integral to development proposals and considered early in the design process 155 . This will ensure they provide adequate protection, do not compromise good design, do not shift the vulnerabilities elsewhere, and are cost-effective. Development proposals should incorporate measures that are proportionate to the threat by way of the risk of an attack and the likely consequences of one. New development should incorporate elements that deter terrorists, maximise the probability of detecting intrusion, and delay any attempts at disruption until a response can be activated (see also Policy 7.3 on designing out crime). Consideration should be given to physical and electronic security (including detailed questions of design and choice of material, vehicular stand off and access, air intakes and telecommunications infrastructure). The Metropolitan Police should be consulted to ensure major projects contain appropriate design solutions, which respond to the potential level of risk whilst ensuring the quality of places is maximised. Air and Noise Pollution POLICY 7.14 IMPROVING AIR QUALITY Strategic A The Mayor recognises the importance of tackling air pollution and improving air quality to London’s development and the health and wellbeing of its people. He will work with strategic partners to ensure that the spatial, climate change, transport and design policies of this plan support implementation of his Air Quality and Transport strategies to achieve reductions in pollutant emissions and minimize public exposure to pollution. Planning decisions B Development proposals should: a minimise increased exposure to existing poor air quality and make provision to address local problems of air quality (particularly within Air Quality Management Areas (AQMAs) and where development is likely to be used by large numbers of those particularly vulnerable to poor air quality, such as children or older people) such as by design solutions, buffer zones or steps to promote greater use of sustainable transport modes through travel plans (see Policy 6.3) b promote sustainable design and construction to reduce emissions from the demolition and construction of buildings following the best 155 Home Office and Department for Communities and Local Government (DCLG), Safer Places: a counter Terrorism supplement. 2009 Page 223 of 310
