EIR - Old Kent Road Area Action Plan [Jan 2021]

Key information

Request reference number: MGLA110121-3495

Date of response:

Summary of request

On 17th September 2018 Jules Pipe wrote to Councillor Peter John, Leader of Southwark Council (letter titled 'Re: Old Kent Road Area Action Plan and Bakerloo Line Extension').

Please can you provide me with information on what was confirmed / agreed, following that letter, on the following matters:

  1. Has the 9,500 figure for new Phase 1 home (above which a Grampian agreement linked to BLE delivery will be required) stayed firm? Is 9,500 still the agreed figure?
  2. From what date are the Phase 1 homes being counted? I note that Jules Pipe had referenced the fact that TfL's technical analysis used 2011 as its base position, implying that he believed that to be the appropriate date.
  3. Does the Phase 1 homes add-up include new homes from all sources (for example including small sites, or not yet identified sites)?
  4. Does the Phase 1 homes add-up include, or exclude, the permission pipeline at the start date for counting? Are homes granted before the start date, but not yet completed at that date, to be counted in the Phase 1 figure?
  5. Are temporary accommodation units to be counted in the Phase 1 homes figure (54 bedrooms approved since 2011)?
  6. Are student housing units to be counted in the Phase 1 homes figure (676 rooms approved since 2011 and a further 267 ending)?
  7. Are hotel rooms to be counted in the Phase 1 homes figure (200 rooms approved since 2011)?
  8. is there a most recent add-up of Phase 1 homes approved? If so, please share that list together with any associated explanation.
