5.5: Promoting Parks, Local Green Space and Addressing Deficiency

The council will seek:

To protect open space of local value required for informal recreation, including for walking, jogging, gardening and food growing.
To address deficiency in access to open space in the borough, and to meet the open space needs arising from new development, including in particular at Southall Gas Works and the Southern Gateway (Park Royal). Key priorities in terms of proposals for addressing deficiency are identified through the Green Space Strategy.
To secure developer contributions to provide a key funding source for the delivery of the above proposals.
To make provision for a network of green ways through parks and open spaces as a means of encouraging walking, cycling and running for recreation and to get to and from local destinations.
To promote the use of parks for events and other activities, providing this is managed in a sensitive and compatible manner.
