64Wembley Area Action Plan - Proposed Submission Version6 TransportPicture 6.1 Great Central Way towardsSouth Way - 'Stadium Access Corridor'Car Parking in WembleyParking Strategy6.20 Parking provision can be used as amechanism for implementing a policy of restrainton car usage and promoting other more sustainablemodes of travel. At the same time, however, thereis a need to promote successful regeneration. InWembley, success will be measured in part by theamount of retail floorspace and other visitorattractions that are provided, and the number ofvisitors to the area. In order to promote suchdevelopment it is necessary to provide a level ofcar parking similar to other competing to enableWembley to compete with other centres anddevelopment that can attract those people that wishto travel by car whilst encouraging people to useother modes of travel, particularly public transport.The aim is to achieve an appropriate balancebetween restraint on car use, by allowing fewerparking spaces associated with development, andpromoting regeneration, with more generousallowances for parking. The London Planestablishes the parameters within which levels ofparking required can be varied.6.21 A study of parking has just been completedwhich recommends a strategy which providesparking in locations which support the keyapproaches promoted for access by car. The mainparking locations will be on the edges of the towncentre, so that the central parts of the town can beprotected to support their use by pedestrians andallow public realm improvements to be deliveredto reduce the impact of through traffic routingthrough the town centre. The future locations forparking will also support the use of the boulevardin providing improved walking and cyclingaccessibility between the Masterplan area andWembley town centre.6.22 The council will continue to develop the carpark strategy for the area by encouraging carparking for town centre uses, in locations on theedge of the town centre to reduce the negativeimpact of traffic along Wembley High Road.6.23 Car parking dedicated for events at thestadium is officially limited to 2,900 spaces. Thisis down from 7,200 spaces for the old stadiumbecause the aim is to encourage a moresustainable mode of travel to events and reducecongestion on local roads. Unfortunately, piratecontract parking is undermining the objectives oflimiting parking.Priorities for vehicular access tothe stadium need to balance the use of the area byall vehicles and pedestrians. The Wembleytransport strategy identifies priorities for differentroad users along the approaches into Wembley.Working with key stakeholders, the Council willseek to minimise the negative effect of the use ofpirate contract car parking.
Wembley Area Action Plan - Proposed Submission Version65Transport 6WEM 15Car Parking StrategyThe Council will continue to develop the carpark strategy for the area by encouraging carparking for town centre uses, in locations onthe edge of the town centre to reduce thenegative impact of traffic along Wembley HighRoadParking Standards6.24 An updated set of parking standards hasbeen developed for Brent, for regeneration areas,and specifically for Wembley. The revised parkingstandards offer greater flexibility for approvingappropriate parking levels for Wembley takingaccount of different PTAL levels, land uses,existence of CPZs and the role of car freedevelopments while promoting inward investmentbecause Wembley is a regeneration area.6.25 The council aims to restrain car use byapplying low maximum standards and directresources towards improving public transport andwalking and cycling routes. The standards seek abalance between the London Plan standards, theexisting Borough standards and the need to ensurenew development is served adequately in keepingwith the regeneration initiatives for the WembleyGrowth Area.6.26 The tables below show the residential,employment and retail parking standards for theBorough.PTAL1-34-6Housing Type1-2 beds0.5spacesper unit0.4spacesper unit3 beds0.75spaces perunit0.6 spacesper unit4+ beds1 space perunit0.6 spacesper unitTable 6.1 Wembley Area Action Plan: ResidentialMaximum Car Parking StandardsPTAL1-34-6Use ClassB11 space per200m 21 space per400m 2A21 spaceper 200m 2NoadditionalparkingB2 and B81 space per200m 21 space per400m 2Table 6.2 Wembley Area Action Plan: EmploymentMaximum Car Parking StandardsFood - up to 500m 2Food - up to 2,500m 2Food - over 2,500m 2Non-foodGarden CentreTown Centre,Shopping Mall,Department StorePTAL 1-31 space per100m 21 space per60m 21 space per30m 21 space per50m 21 space per50m 21 space per50m 2PTAL 4-61 space per200m 21 space per120m 21 space per60m 21 space per100m 21 space per100m 21 space per100m 2Table 6.3 Wembley Area Action Plan: Retail MaximumCar Parking Standards
