EL22 Proposed Pedestrian and Cycle Route Improvement Principles
Route 1: The Central Spine – an east-west spine road running through Meridian Water (see Policy EL6)
Route 2: Montagu Road – Ardra Road – Lee Valley Path
Route 3: Charlton Road – Lee Valley Leisure Complex - Picketts Lock Lane – Picketts Lock – Lee Valley Path
Planning proposals to deliver these pedestrian and cycle routes will encourage:
- Well designed, high quality new links and pedestrian and cycle bridges, including high quality bridging over the rail mainline, Meridian Way and River Lee Navigation;
- Clear and consistent signage throughout the route, including on-street markings for cycles;
- Provision of pedestrian and cycle facilities, which integrate with the existing highway network;
- Improved public realm, including where routes pass beneath the North Circular Road;
- Introducing interventions to discourage informal and on street parking, where this affects the route; and
- Reference to the principles of the Mayor’s Healthy Streets approach, in particular taking account of the 10 Healthy Streets indicators.
This policy should be read in conjunction with Core Strategy policies 24 and 25 and DMD policy 48.
