4.65 The proposed increase in floorspace will result in 1 additional two-way vehicle trip<br />

in the morning peak <strong>and</strong> 1 additional two-way vehicle trip in the evening peak.<br />

4.66 It is considered that the estimated number of additional multi-modal trips that the<br />

development proposals would generate would not affect the character or operation of<br />

the local transport networks, both in the existing baseline position <strong>and</strong> the future<br />

baseline (consented Phase 2 extension) position. Further assessment of the effect of<br />

the development proposal during the morning <strong>and</strong> evening peak periods is not required<br />

against either the baseline position or the future baseline position.<br />

Construction Phase<br />

4.67 The Borough's Highways Engineer recommends that a Construction Logistics Plan<br />

will be required in accordance with TfL requirements. This should seek to minimise the<br />

impact of construction traffic on nearby roads <strong>and</strong> restrict trips to off peak hours only.<br />

Energy <strong>and</strong> Sustainability<br />

4.68 The NPPF seeks to ensure the delivery of low carbon energy development in order<br />

to address climate change <strong>and</strong> achieve environmental sustainability. This is reflected<br />

within London Plan Policies 5.1 (Climate Change Mitigation), 5.2 (Minimising Carbon<br />

Emissions) <strong>and</strong> 5.3 (Sustainable Design <strong>and</strong> Construction). Policy 5.2 sets out that new<br />

development should seek to minimise carbon dioxide emissions in accordance with the<br />

following energy hierarchy:<br />

Be lean - use less energy;<br />

Be clean - supply energy efficiently; <strong>and</strong><br />

Be green - use renewable energy.<br />

4.69 At the local level, Strategic Policy CC1 of the Core Strategy (Reduce Carbon<br />

Emissions <strong>and</strong> Resource Use <strong>and</strong> Adapt to Climate Change Impacts) requires<br />

developments to make the fullest contribution to addressing climate change <strong>and</strong><br />

reducing carbon dioxide emissions.<br />

4.70 LBHF's SPD policies on Sustainability <strong>and</strong> Energy have replaced many of the<br />

former UDP policies relating to energy <strong>and</strong> sustainability. This document recognises
