Do you recommend any changes to the proposed LIP3 objectives? We agree with the broad intent of the objectives to improve people's health, increase walking and cycling and reduce car use. We recommend strengthening the objectives as follows: Objective 1: We recommend that ‘healthy streets and liveable neighbourhoods’ are defined ​ more clearly. The text should specify low levels of traffic on minor roads, segregated cycling facilities on major roads, and safe, convenient pedestrian crossings. Replace the word ‘encourage’ with ‘enable’. Objective 2: Improving cycling safety should also be included in this objective, as Harrow has ​ the second highest rate of cycling casualties in London

Key Issues, Challenges and Drivers 15 5. Generating the Options 21 6. Spatial Development Strategy 28 Options 7. Delivery and Implementation 40 Harrow and Wealdstone Area Action Plan: Issues and Options Consultation Document 1 Introduction 1.1 The Harrow Core Strategy identifies the Harrow and Wealdstone Intensification Area as a focus for future growth and development within the Borough. The Intensification Area, shown in Figure 1, is recognised in the replacement London Plan and the Harrow Core Strategy as being a location that can accommodate change and has capacity to do so. However, such change must be managed in a clear and comprehensive manner. 1.2 As set out in the Core Strategy, the Intensification Area is not just about providing for new development and physical growth, it is also about regeneration and the realisation of the social benefits and improvements to the overall quality of place that new development can deliver. The Council and the Greater London Authority (GLA), in partnership with Homes and Communities Agency, Transport for London and the London Development Agency, are therefore preparing a joint Area Action Plan for the Intensification Area. The purpose of the Area Action Plan is to provide a detailed and pro-active policy framework to guide development, regeneration and investment decisions across the area over the next fifteen years and beyond. Picture 1.1 Boundary of the Harrow and Wealdstone Intensification Area 1.3 In respect of the boundary for the Intensification Area, this has already been confirmed through the Core Strategy.
