The London Plan July 2011 – RTF version general planning policy direction for offices should be taken there as in the CAZ. POLICY 2.12 CENTRAL ACTIVITIES ZONE – PREDOMINANTLY LOCAL ACTIVITIES Strategic A The Mayor will, and boroughs and other relevant agencies should: a work together to identify, protect and enhance predominantly residential neighbourhoods within CAZ, and elsewhere develop sensitive mixed use policies to ensure that housing does not compromise CAZ strategic functions in the zone b work with social infrastructure providers to meet the needs of both local residents and that generated by the large numbers of visitors and workers in CAZ. 2.56 As well as being an economic hub, the CAZ is a place where many people live – including many people who also work there. Availability of a range of homes in the CAZ helps support its strategic function, as well as allowing for sustainable lifestyles and reducing need to travel. It is important to take a balanced approach to addressing both the CAZ’s strategic functions and its role as a residential area and the need for the range of facilities and infrastructure this entails, taking account of the unique patterns of demand arising from the fact that these are likely to be used by visitors and workers as well as residents 2.57 The quality and character of the CAZ’s predominantly residential neighbourhoods should be protected and enhanced. This requires a variety of housing suitable to the needs of the diverse communities living in the area. It is also important, however, to make sure that this does not compromise the strategic functions in other parts of the CAZ. Opportunity Areas and Intensification Areas POLICY 2.13 OPPORTUNITY AREAS AND INTENSIFICATION AREAS Strategic A Within the opportunity and intensification areas shown in Map 2.4, the Mayor will: a provide proactive encouragement, support and leadership for partnerships preparing and implementing opportunity area planning frameworks to realize these areas’ growth potential in the terms of Annex 1, recognising that there are different models for carrying these forward; or b build on frameworks already developed ; and c ensure that his agencies (including Transport for London) work collaboratively and with others to identify those opportunity and intensification areas that require public investment and intervention to achieve their growth potential d encourage boroughs to progress and implement planning frameworks to realise the potential of intensification areas in the terms of Annex 1, and will provide strategic support where necessary.

The London Plan July 2011 – RTF version Planning decisions B Development proposals within opportunity areas and intensification areas should: a support the strategic policy directions for the opportunity areas and intensification areas set out in Annex 1, and where relevant, in adopted opportunity area planning frameworks b seek to optimise residential and non-residential output and densities, provide necessary social and other infrastructure to sustain growth, and, where appropriate, contain a mix of uses c contribute towards meeting (or where appropriate, exceeding) the minimum guidelines for housing and/or indicative estimates for employment capacity set out in Annex 1, tested as appropriate through opportunity area planning frameworks and/or local development frameworks d realize scope for intensification associated with existing or proposed improvements in public transport accessibility, such as Crossrail, making better use of existing infrastructure and promote inclusive access including cycling and walking e support wider regeneration (including in particular improvements to environmental quality) and integrate development proposals to the surrounding areas especially areas for regeneration. LDF preparation C Within LDFs boroughs should develop more detailed policies and proposals for opportunity areas and intensification areas. [Map 2.4 Opportunity and Intensification Areas] 2.58 Opportunity areas are the capital’s major reservoir of brownfield land with significant capacity to accommodate new housing, commercial and other development linked to existing or potential improvements to public transport accessibility. Typically they can accommodate at least 5,000 jobs or 2,500 new homes or a combination of the two, along with other supporting facilities and infrastructure. 2.59 Intensification areas are typically built-up areas with good existing or potential public transport accessibility which can support redevelopment at higher densities. They have significant capacity for new jobs and homes but at a level below that which can be achieved in the opportunity areas. 2.60 The broad locations of London’s opportunity areas and intensification areas are set out in Map 2.4. The strategic policy directions for London’s opportunity areas and intensification areas, and minimum guidelines for housing and indicative estimates for employment capacity, are set out in Annex 1. Together, the opportunity areas have capacity for 490,300 additional jobs and 233,600 additional homes; the intensification areas can accommodate 13,000 new jobs and a further 14,350 homes. 2.61 The opportunity areas are diverse, ranging in size from 3,884 hectares (Upper Lee Valley) to 16 hectares (Euston). The 12 areas In east London together cover 9,000 hectares of land, and have capacity for 215,000 jobs (Including 110,000 at the Isle of Dogs and 50,000 In the Lower Lee Valley Page 55 of 310
