EI 9 Protected wharves

The loss of safeguarded wharves will not be permitted unless it is demonstrated that the wharf is no longer viable or capable of being made viable for cargo handling in accordance with Policy PL9 of the Core Strategy. The viability test is set out in paragraph 7.77 of the London Plan. At Cringle Dock and Kirtling Wharf (Site Allocations 2.1.6 & 2.1.7), any proposal for mixed use development must ensure that it does not have a negative impact on the operation of the safeguarded wharf in accordance with Policy PL9 of the Core Strategy. This includes impacts on access arrangements to the wharf and the retention of the operational capacity of the wharf.
