The proposed locations for new street furniture will be considered as follows:
- A minimum width of 3.5 m clear and unobstructed footway will usually be required in Town Centres.
- A minimum width of 1.8 m clear and unobstructed footway will usually be required outside Town Centres.
- In both above locations where there is a high level of footfall, even over short bursts, a greater width of clear and unobstructed footway than specified may be required.
- In special circumstances, where broadband cabinets are required to meet Local Plan Strategic Objective 18 to facilitate access to high speed internet across the borough, a minimum width of 1.2 clear and unobstructed footway will be required, except within Town Centres and areas with a high level of footfall where a greater width than 1.2 m will be required.
