Unacceptable parking arrangements are proposed which would result in unsafe impacts on highway safety, including for pedestrians and other road users. The proposed development would therefore be contrary to Policies T4 and T6 of the London Plan (2021) and Policies DM29 and DM30 of the Croydon Local Plan (2018). In reaching this decision the Local Planning Authority has sought to work in a positive and pro-active manner based on seeking solutions to problems in the following way:

To assist applicants the Local Planning Authority has produced policies and written guidance, all of which is available on the Council's website and offers a pre planning application advice service. The scheme does not comply with guidance and no pre application discussions were entered into. The Council is ready to enter into discussions with the applicants to assist in the preparation of a new planning application via the Council's Pre Application process. The Local Planning Authority's suggested improvements were not adopted by the applicant. The Local Planning Authority delivered the decision in a timely manner.
