Urban Design Principles - Street Pattern / Links

  • Development should allow good legibility and permeability. It should reinforce the area’s grid pattern and traditional street blocks. Very large blocks should be broken down and reconnected into the grid to create a permeable, comprehensible and easily navigable urban fabric.
  • The public realm should be designed to prioritise walking and cycling.
  • The public realm should include on-street wayfinding where appropriate in the form of clear map-based information designed to enhance its setting, such as the ‘Legible London’ system.
