All long stay on site cycle parking must be secure, undercover and preferably enclosed, in accordance with the London Cycle Design Standards. 3.

Citations, officer spread, ward and application-type counts parsed from published City Of London decision notices (high-confidence parses, approvals and refusals), joined to the canonical application record. One citation = one decision citing the policy. See the policy overview for every policy cited.

Atlas intelligence summarises patterns and observations from published planning records. Past decisions do not indicate how any future application will be determined. Every application is assessed on its own merits, having regard to the proposal, site, evidence and policies applying at the time.
