The SPD promotes higher density commercial and residential development, improved public realm, and better transport links. The cultural offer will also be enhanced with improved arts, leisure and cultural facilities. By defining the opportunities and issues in Waterloo, the SPD intends to deliver lasting and tangible benefits to the area. Benefits include: • Waterloo playing an enlarged role in the London economy and improvements to the area’s status. • Opportunities to access the 15,000 new jobs that are expected to be created. • The development of new housing, including affordable housing. Approximately 1,900 new homes will be developed within Waterloo. The SPD sets out site specific guidance for a range of development areas including the Shell Centre, Elizabeth House and the South Bank Arts Complex. The document illustrates the benefits these schemes will bring to Waterloo and how they can be linked together through an improved network of streets and spaces. The high demand on public space within the Waterloo area is addressed with the SPD highlighting the importance of the expanding Jubilee Gardens on to the Hungerford Car Park. The guidance sets out how the barrier effect of Waterloo station can be reduced and how existing connections can be improved and additional pathways across the station made. The importance of Waterloo station as a major public transport interchange is highlighted and the SPD illustrates how future transport improvements will benefit the area. The national and international importance of the South Bank as a visitor destination is reinforced and the SPD seeks to balance the needs of this major London destination and its growth with the facilities and services required by the local area and its communities. The Implementation chapter highlights how this ambitious vision can be delivered through partnership working, project prioritisation and a co-ordinated approach to pooling s.106 and CIL contributions. The Waterloo Area SPD was originally adopted by Cabinet on 8 June 2009. As there has been significant change in the area since the document was published, the SPD needed to be updated to respond to Lambeth’s growth agenda. This 2013 SPD continues the same approach as the 2009 SPD and supports
