Land Adj To Junction Of Uxbridge Road And Wharncliffe Drive Southall UB1 3ET
Change of use of land to display cars for sale (Sui Generis Use Class); and construction of fencing and hardstanding (Retrospective application)
The unauthorised development of a high fence and hardsurfacing of the entire site creates a low quality and barren appearance, at stark odds with the surrounding development. It causes detrimental harm the character and appearance of the corner site which marks the entrance to Wharncliff Housing Estate in conflict with policies D1, D3 and D4 of the London Plan (2021) and policy 7.4 of the Ealing Development Management DPD (2013).
The retrospective proposal fails to include adequate information or detailing about transport impacts or surface water flooding and drainage. There are likely to be significant impacts that will arise from the hardsurfacing of the entire site and the intensified car sales business in this location on busy traffic junction. This is in conflict with policies, 5.12 of the Ealing Development Management DPD (2013) and T4, T5, T6 of the London Plan (2021).
