DM 9 Managing Vehicle Use for New Development

To ensure that new development does not contribute to congestion or compromise highway safety the Council will:

  • require all major developments to submit a Transport Assessment based on TfL’s Best Practice Guidance
  • require new development to comply with car parking standards and implement parking management schemes
  • restrict eligibility for on-street parking permits for residents of new developments located in controlled parking zones
  • require new development to provide car club and electric vehicle infrastructure where appropriate in accordance with minimum standards
