Draft Brentford East SPD
The draft Supplementary Planning Document (SPD) was consulted on between 23rd October 2018 and 10th December 2017 and we are currently reviewing feedback. The SPD it seeks to provides detailed information and planning and design guidance for new development within the Brentford East area (the area on the Great West Road, around Kew Bridge station between Gunnersbury Park and the River Thames).
As the Great West Corridor Local Plan Review is at a relatively early stage in the plan making process, it is felt that interim guidance is needed to ensure that development in this area that comes forward in the shorter terms does so in a coordinated and planned way.
