SHOPPING CENTRES LTD.-TESCO & SLOUGH ESTATESShopping Centres Ltd and Tesco are now in negotiations with British Land & Canada Quays. The Shopping Centres Ltd. planning application (02-AP-1756), for an extension to the Tesco store and the rerouting of the footpath to Greenland Dock, was refused by Southwark Council for the following reasons: 1. The proposed extension would result in a poor layout and arrangement that would be detrimental to the safety and security of pedestrians using the walkway between the shopping centre and Greenland Dock, contrary to Policy E.1.1 ‘Safety and Security in the Environment’ in the Southwark Unitary Development Plan and Policy 3.16 ‘Safety in Design’ in the draft Southwark Plan (Nov. 2002). 2. The proposal would result in the loss of a well designed public area, and its replacement by a poor quality design for this part of the shopping centre, in particular the public areas, contrary to Policies E.2.5 ‘External Space’; E.3.1 ‘Protecting Amenity’; and E.3.4 ‘Upgrading the Environment’ of the Southwark Unitary Development Plan, and Policies 3.2 ‘Protection of Amenity’; 3.14 ‘Quality in Design’; and 3.15 ‘Urban Design’ in the draft Southwark Plan (Nov. 2002). Recently Shopping Centres Ltd have addressed the points made by the community and Canada Water Campaign and met with the Chair and members of the CWC to present new plans which are shown here: Download plan These plans seem to address all the points made by CWC and permission was granted at Rotherhithe Community Council on 26th July. |
