  • Iver Motorway Service Area Response, February 2021
    President: Rt.Hon. the Lord Randall of Uxbridge Kt.PC. Planning Service Buckinghamshire Council King George V House King George V Road Amersham HP6 5AW February 2021 Dear Sir/Madam Re: Planning application PL/20/4332/0A Motorway Service Area between Junctions 15 and 16 near Iver Heath This application falls within the Colne Valley Regional Park (CVRP) and the Green Belt. Buckinghamshire Council and the former Chiltern and South Bucks Councils have been supporters of the CVRP since its inception. We hope the Council will continue to uphold the six objectives of the CVRP since this application represents the loss of farmland; the loss of 46 Ha of the CVRP and the Green Belt in a sensitive location; harm to recreational rights of way; harm to watercourses which run through the development, and the loss of, and harm to, existing grassland, woodland, hedgerows and their accompanying biodiversity. • This response to the planning application also looks at the case for the Motorway Service Areas affecting the CVRP, including the one in this location • The strategic planning context and the impact on the Green Belt • The extent of the harm arising from the scheme and • The scale of mitigation that should accompany the development if the very special circumstances’ (VSC) were to be accepted by the decision maker (whether the Council or Secretary of State). The case for an MSA in this location This application for a motorway service area is one of three currently being considered by local authorities along the north-western edge of the M25. All the operators state that there is a need for an MSA on this stretch of motorway between the existing Cobham and South Mimms MSAs.

  • Community-Facility-Brochure.Pdf
    2 Overview As part of wider regeneration of the Aylesbury area, along with its development partner Notting Hill Genesis, the Council is committed to delivering two new state-of-the-art community spaces for the local area of Walworth. The facilities are: A new Community Facility on Westmoreland Road, near the Walworth Road. Ready at the end of 2021. Community spaces within the new Library on Thurlow Street, near East Street. Ready in early 2022. These two facilities present an exciting opportunity for a local community provider to be based in the heart of a new vibrant neighbourhood of Walworth at a key strategic point in time when the area is seeing change and growth. Location The Westmoreland Road Community Facility is located 200 m from Walworth Road on Westmoreland street and is part of a building incorporating specialist residential accommodation above. It is very near to the existing Southwark Resource Centre and is opposite a new pocket park. The Thurlow Street Library, which incorporates community spaces, is located 400m from East Street and is located on a new East-West link from the conservation area to Thurlow Street. Both will provide community functions which complement other places in the neighbourhood, particularly in relation to commercial activity in the Walworth Road and East Street, existing community functions already in the area and in relation to such places as Faraday Gardens, Burgess Park, Surrey Square park. Getting around By Tube and train: The facilities are within a walking distance from Kennington tube station (Northern Line) and less than a mile from Elephant and Castle, with two tube stations (Northern and Bakerloo) and a rail station .
