Received: 30/04/2010

Respondent: Inner London Group

Agent: Christopher Wickham Associates

DM25 Parking Standards - Preferred Option

Representation ID: 20000

Received: 30/04/2010

Respondent: Inner London Group

Agent: Christopher Wickham Associates

Representation Summary:

The application of minimum parking standards is expressely contrary to national planning policy, as set out in PPG13. Excessive parking provision will encourage car ownership and usage, and is therefore unsustainable. Large areas of parking will also blight the setting of new development. Minimum standards should only be applied in exceptional cases where a lower level of parking can be shown to cause clear-cut highway safety or access problems.
