It is imperative to commence SEA at the early stages of plan making to identify the key sustainability issues likely affected by the implementation of the plan; it assists with creating development options and assesses any significant effects of the proposed development. SA/SEA’s are an important tool for developing sound planning policies and planning development plans which are consistent with the Government’s sustainable development agenda and achieving the aspirations of local communities.

    Page 59 Agenda Item 8 London Borough of Sutton Carshalton and Clockhouse Area Committee - 5 July 2006 Report of the Interim Head of Transport, Planning and Works MEDLAND CLOSE, HACKBRIDGE – PROPOSED DESIGNATED CYCLE ROUTE. Ward Location: Wandle Valley Author(s) and Contact Phone Number(s): Lynn Robinson 0208 770 6461 Area Served: Wandle Valley Lead Councillor: Colin Hall Report for Decision Summary In a continuing commitment to improve Sutton’s cycle network this scheme is to designate a cycle route between Beddington Zero Energy Development (BedZED), an environmentally friendly development in Hackbridge, and the London and National cycle route, which runs adjacent to the river Wandle. It is proposed that the Pelican crossing on London Road be converted to a Toucan Crossing and that the existing path on Medland Close be widened to accommodate cyclists. This report asks Committee to approve the designation of a new cycling route and all works associated with that route. Recommendations I recommend the Committee to: a. Support the designation of a cycle route between BedZED and the existing local and national cycle route on Culvers Avenue/Wandle Trail; b. Authorise the Interim Executive Head of Planning Transport and Highways, in consultation with Ward Members to make minor changes to the design of the cycle scheme as shown of drawing no T8020_FD_01 and to implement the scheme subject to no material objections being received during the consultation period; c. Authorise the Interim Executive Head of Planning, Transport and Highways to convert the Pelican Crossing on London Road near Medland Close to a Toucan crossing and to carry out all associated works, subject to approval by Transport for London’s Traffic Signal Section; d.

  • Mitcham Junction to Colliers Wood Walk
    Saturday Walkers Club www.walkingclub.org.uk Mitcham Junction to Colliers Wood walk Nature Reserves and the Wandle Trail through south London Length Main Walk: 15½ km (9.6 miles). Three hours 15 minutes walking time. For the whole excursion including trains, sights and meals, allow at least 6½ hours. Alternative Walk, from Waddon: 14½ km (9.0 miles). Three hours walking time. OS Map Explorer 161. Mitcham Junction, map reference TQ282676, is in south London, 4 km SE of Wimbledon. Colliers Wood is 2 km E of Wimbledon. Toughness 1 out of 10. Features This south London walk is in the proposed Wandle Valley Regional Park, a newly- designated area along the course of this tributary of the Thames. Described as ‘London's hardest-working river’, the fast-flowing chalk stream once supported nearly 100 watermills along its short length. There are many traces of the river's industrial past and one surviving watermill which is still in full working order can be seen near the end of the walk, at Merton Abbey Mills. Much of the walk follows the waymarked Wandle Trail, a 22 km walking and cycling route from Croydon to Wandsworth. However, the preferred starting point for this walk is from the station on Mitcham Common, near the centre of the new Regional Park. A short stretch across the common leads to a permissive footpath along the western boundary of Beddington Farmlands, shown unappealingly on the map as a sewage works and landfill site. However, as part of the conditions for constructing a new “Energy Recovery Facility” Viridor are transforming the surrounding area into an urban nature reserve, restoring its status as an important birdwatching location.

  • Wandle Invasive Species Action Plan
    Wandle Invasive Species Action Plan This document outlines the shared Aims for the five key invasive non-native plants which have become established and widespread on the River Wandle: Himalayan balsam, Japanese knotweed, giant hogweed, floating pennywort and parrots feather. The Aims and Approaches have been agreed as part of the Wandle Invasive Species Project which was funded by the Heritage Lottery Fund through the Living Wandle Landscape Partnership. More information on the biology, ecology and control of these species can be found in the Wandle Invasive Species Management Plan which you can download from the Wandle Trust website. FLOATING GIANT HIMALAYAN JAPANESE PARROTS PENNYWORT HOGWEED BALSAM KNOTWEED FEATHER INNS distribution on the Wandle by species 1 Floating Pennywort (FPW) Aims for the Wandle: ° Maintain Ravensbury Park Lake and Watermeads Backwater as open water habitats ° Maintain FPW at manageable levels (restricted, small, single layered rafts) along the river Approach: FPW is well established in the Wandle with the source in Sutton and a significant stronghold at Morden Hall Park. Each year, all known patches to be treated with an integrated approach of manual and chemical removal until the plant only exists as small, manageable FPW at Watermeads Nature Reserve patches on the river. Current Distribution FPW is found all along the Wandle in the boroughs of Sutton, Merton and Wandsworth. The source is a small patch on London Road near Beddington Park. Significant strongholds for the species are Ravensbury Park, Watermeads Nature Reserve and Morden Hall Park. Wandle Trust River Rangers survey the river at least once a year for FPW.
