Policy information sourced from the Hillingdon Local Plan: Part 1

E4: Uxbridge

The Council will strengthen the status of Uxbridge Town Centre as a Metropolitan Centre by delivering growth set out in Table 5.4 and promoting Uxbridge as a suitable location for retail, offices, hotels, recreation and leisure, entertainment and culture, evening and night-time economy, education, community services, and mixed-use development. The Council will secure improvements to Uxbridge public transport interchange and the town centre boundary will be expanded as shown on Map 5.2.

Implementation of Policy E4: how we will achieve this

Policy E4 will be delivered through the planning application process, including implementing the existing RAF Uxbridge Supplementary Planning Document, through the Hillingdon Local Plan: Part 2- Site Specific Allocations Local Development Document, by co-ordinating and developing a strategy for tourism and visitor attractions in Uxbridge Town Centre, and through partnership working with Transport for London.

Monitoring of Policy E4: how we will measure success

Policy E4 and the conclusions of the evidence base (particularly those conclusions related to the supply of convenience and comparison retail floorspace) will be monitored through the production of the Council’s Annual Monitoring Report. This monitoring will inform the production of the Hillingdon Local Plan: Part 2- Site Specific Allocations and Development Management Policies Local Development Documents. The evidence base will be updated as appropriate to ensure it provides an up to date basis for policy and decision taking.
