Foreword

Planning for successful property development and regeneration in London is a complex business. Many facets influence the capital’s property market, from socio-economics to viewing corridors, and from public transport connectivity to local context and politics.

The layers of London planning, with devolved city-wide governance through the Greater London Authority combined with the unique character and ambitions of each London borough, means that accessing and understanding key data is vital. But there’s a lot of data, which is why we produced the A-Z of London Planning – so that development professionals can access high level ‘need to know’ information at-a-glance.

We’ve updated the key data, and now republish the A-Z of London Planning, following the coming together of WSP and Indigo. The joining of our two consultancies is based on the shared desire to become the leading planning consultancy in the UK, proactively engaging with clients and the industry on the most pressing planning issues. We’re committed to ensuring London’s future growth is sustainable and inclusive, responding to the need for new housing and employment, and for the right infrastructure to support existing and new communities.

Introduction

This is an update to the first instalment of our A-Z of London Planning. This serves as a go-to for anyone working within, or with an interest in the London property market.

Using data taken from government departments, the GLA and multiple other sources, as well as local insights from our team of in-house specialists, this directory has been designed as a visual overview of the demographic, socio-economic and planning traits defining each of the 32 Boroughs, the City of London and the Greater London Authority.

Our aim for this guide was to produce a high-level, easy-to-digest summary of the crucial facets of London planning. It covers topics such as housing delivery, planning performance, population change and planning policy – all of which can be benchmarked against other UK cities.

Since statistics are continually changing, this guide represents a snapshot of policies and statistics in time, rather than a definitive record. We have used indicators and data that we feel most accurately represent each of the Boroughs. Our methodology and visualisation methods are explained in the How To Read section (page 8).

Since the document was first published, WSP announced the acquisition of Indigo Planning in April 2019. Together, it brings over 110 experienced and creative planning professionals operating across the property and infrastructure sectors, throughout the UK.

Indigo has long been a leader in the UK planning market, having been awarded RTPI Planning Consultancy of the Year in 2017 and 2015. Shortlisted in each of the last six years, in May 2018, Indigo was recognised as a ‘Highly Commended Planning Consultancy of the Year Award’ at the RTPI Awards. 2 Introduction Introduction 3
