The London Plan July 2011 – RTF version have been granted in both Camden and Islington for high-density commercial development, office, retail, leisure and housing. There may be scope to consider linkages between the academic sector and businesses clustered in this location. The implementation of development must capture heritage value, secure environmental quality and minimise car use. It is vital to integrate the major rail termini, underground station and brownfield sites with the regeneration of neighbourhoods in the wider area. 17 Lewisham, Catford and New Cross Area (Ha): 815 Indicative employment capacity: 6,000 Minimum new homes: 8,000 OAPF progress: 1 This Area contains a series of centres with scope for intensification, regeneration and renewal. There is scope for further intensification in central Lewisham where strategically important regeneration is already planned. Projects such as the Kender Triangle gyratory removal and Lewisham Gateway will provide development opportunities, improve the public realm and raise design quality in the area. The scope to address poor legibility, severance and traffic congestion should be investigated. Projects such as Waterlink Way and Deptford Loop should be further developed together with wider environmental improvements such as extensions to the East London Green Grid. 18 London Bridge, Borough & Bankside Area (Ha): 155 Indicative employment capacity: 25,000 Minimum new homes: 1,900 OAPF progress: 2 This Area has considerable potential for intensification, particularly at London Bridge station and its environs, complemented by improvements to public transport and interchange facilities, better pedestrian integration with the surrounding area and greater use of river passenger transport. There is scope to develop the strengths of the Area for strategic office provision as well as housing, especially in the hinterland between Blackfriars and London bridges. Mixed leisure and culture related development should enhance its distinct offer as part of the South Bank Strategic Cultural Area, and partners should work to develop and accommodate synergies with the existing centre of medical excellence. Account should be taken of the Tower of London World Heritage site and proposals for open space networks and transport and community infrastructure should be co-ordinated with those in the Waterloo and Elephant and Castle Opportunity Area and across borough boundaries. 19 London Riverside Area (Ha): 2,500 Indicative employment capacity: 14,000 Minimum new homes: 25,000 OAPF progress: 1 Within the Area development will be focused on the Barking Riverside, Dagenham Dock, South Dagenham, Beam Reach, Beam Park and Rainham West sites with scope for intensification in Barking town centre, Rainham Village and South Hornchurch. The development strategy will include Page 264 of 310
The London Plan July 2011 – RTF version managed release of some surplus industrial land for housing and other complementary uses, and consolidating the offer of the remaining industrial land including promotion of a Green Enterprise District incorporating the London Sustainable Industrial Park at Dagenham Dock. Any new development and infrastructure brought forward in this area must avoid adverse affects on any European site of nature conservation importance (to include SACs, SPAs, Ramsar, proposed and candidate sites) either alone or in combination with other plans and projects. Substantial improvements in public transport will be needed, building on plans for increased capacity on the C2C rail line, and East London Transit schemes to serve London Riverside, exploring the potential for additional stations, for example at Beam Park along the current rail corridor, and extended bus services. There is scope to improve connectivity by cycling and walking across the whole area and in particular through implementation of the East London Green Grid. It is also imperative to plan for long term flood risk management. The industrial areas at River Road, Rippleside, Dagenham Dock and Rainham Employment Area support a range of different businesses. Access to rail, river wharves, trunk roads and existing warehousing clusters support the provision of strategically important logistics facilities, including inter-modal freight transfer (potentially at Renwick Road/Ripple Road), as well as consolidating the strengths of modern manufacturing excellence. At South Dagenham, along the A1306 East, and in Rainham there is potential to deliver more compact, residential-led mixed urban communities. The core employment areas have the potential to be developed as a leading centre for innovation and high-tech manufacturing, and for the growth sector of environmental technology, for example at Dagenham Dock. Barking Riverside is London’s single largest housing development opportunity and the Mayor will continue to lobby for the investment to fund the DLR extension to Dagenham Dock which is necessary to deliver over 10,000 new homes. Development should create not just a good quality environment with a full range of community facilities, but a new urban quarter with a distinct character of its own and a highly attractive place to live. 20 Lower Lee Valley (including Stratford) Area (Ha): 1,400 Indicative employment capacity: 50,000 Minimum new homes: 32,000 OAPF progress: 2 Currently this Area is the most important single strategic regeneration initiative for London and an urban renewal challenge of global significance including the 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games and their legacy. The Lower Lee forms the axis linking two nationally important growth corridors: the London-Stansted-Cambridge-Peterborough corridor to the north and the Thames Gateway to the east. Any new development and infrastructure brought forward in this area must avoid adverse affects on any European site of nature conservation importance (to include SACs, SPAs, Ramsar, proposed and candidate sites), either alone or in combination with other plans and projects. A new Metropolitan centre will be focused on Stratford town centre and a rich mix of employment, housing and open spaces across the Lower Lee Valley. Stratford is recognised as one of the capital’s two strategic office centres beyond central London and a potential Outer London Strategic Development Centre with particular potential for office development. The area will contain a significant new residential community providing at least Page 265 of 310
