EP1 Access to the Wandle Valley Regional Park

Hackbridge sits in the middle of the Wandle Valley Regional Park and thereby all development proposals shall be required to contribute to the provision of easy access to green spaces where justified, including:

  • the consideration of the needs of people with disabilities (DDA compliant), children and older residents to enable independent exploration of the park.
  • retention, development and provision of public access to Beddington Farmlands and the wider WVRP. Please refer to Policy CIP1 which covers safeguarding and enhancing heritage assets.

Support will be given to the principle of providing a suitable visitor centre within the WVRP.
