CC12 LIGHT POLLUTION

The potential adverse impacts from lighting arrangements will be controlled by requiring all developments that include proposals for external lighting including illuminated signs and advertisements, security and flood lights and other illuminations to submit details showing that it:

  • is appropriate for the intended use;
  • provides the minimum amount of light necessary to achieve its purpose;
  • is energy efficient; and
  • provides adequate protection from glare and light spill, particularly to nearby sensitive receptors such as residential properties and Nature Conservation Areas, including the River Thames.
