CS TR1 - Managing Industrial Traffic
Mixed-Use Development within the NP Area should mitigate, manage and reduce the impacts of vehicular traffic along Camley Street, particularly in relation to goods deliveries, construction /demolition, and freight movement, by:
- Providing space for off-street loading bays to avoid disruption to traffic;
- Submitting delivery management plans for all employment- generating developments demonstrating how deliveries and servicing will avoid major disruption to neighbouring residents;
- Reducing freight movements overall through freight consolidation and co-ordinating delivery strategies;
- Utilising alternative modes of transport where possible, such as modal shift from road to rail, and/or the provision of rapid electric-vehicle charging points for freight vehicles;
- Segregating industrial traffic from pedestrian and cycle routes, where practicable, in order to minimise conflicts and air and noise pollution;
- Identifying opportunities to utilise the Regent’s Canal for the movement of freight; and
- Reducing carbon emissions through last-mile schemes, including by bicycle and/or electric vehicle.
Where appropriate, mitigation through direct provision of public-realm improvements and/or highway improvements will be required in order to address any adverse transport impacts identified.
