EP6 Green Infrastructure

All development shall be required, where appropriate, to extend the biodiversity and amenity value of surrounding open spaces through the neighbourhood via new and enhanced green infrastructure linkages through on- site measures. This shall include:

  • Provision of three principal green links improving west-east links between the River Wandle and Mitcham Common/Beddington Farmlands sections of the proposed Wandle Valley Regional Park.
  • Additional measures will be used to improve north-south links along the River Wandle and London Road. Please refer to Map 8.

This policy applies to all development within or adjacent to existing or new green corridors/links where it shall be integral to their design and implementation.
