SSP6: Future Development of The Veolia Council Depot Site Holmes Road / Spring Place NW5 3AP

Any future proposals for sale of the site by Camden Council and development will be given consideration by KTNF in terms of the following criteria:

A mainly C3 residential-led mixed use scheme, including active frontages along Holmes Road and Spring Place. This will include affordable housing with potential additional uses listed below:

  1. Retention of existing employment space by creating new work space for the creative sector to complement the creative businesses in nearby Spring Place
  2. Community facilities, for example shared community / schools sports facilities Development must be sensitive to nearby uses, particularly regarding access, highway safety, noise and amenity for occupiers. Development will be supported which makes provision for or makes a contribution towards:
  3. On-site cycle parking facilities, in accordance with the London Plan, Policy 6.9
  4. Enhanced public realm including improved pavements and tree planting
  5. Enhanced public realm and cycle lane links at junctions with Spring Place and Holmes Road
  6. Pedestrian and cycle access to Regis Road

Given the proximity to the Regis Road site, the Veolia site shall be considered as part of Kentish Town Potential Development Area in respect of comprehensive development proposals which include the Regis Road site. In that event, the Policy SP2a KTPDA General Development Criteria will apply to development within the Veolia Site.

This policy will be subject to assessment of viability on proposals coming forward.
