T4 Sustainable movement of goods and materials

The Council will promote the sustainable movement of goods and materials and seek to minimise the movement of goods and materials by road. We will:

  • encourage the movement of goods and materials by canal, rail and bicycle where possible;
  • protect existing facilities for waterborne and rail freight traffic and;
  • promote the provision and use of freight consolidation facilities.

Developments of over 2,500 sqm likely to generate significant movement of goods or materials by road (both during construction and operation) will be expected to:

  • minimise the impact of freight movement via road by prioritising use of the Transport for London Road Network or other major roads;
  • accommodate goods vehicles on site; and
  • provide Construction Management Plans, Delivery and Servicing Management Plans and Transport Assessments where appropriate.
