Draft Colindale Underground Station Supplementary Planning Document (SPD)
This consultation has now closed.
The council has prepared a draft Colindale Underground Station Supplementary Planning Document (SPD) for public consultation. This document has been prepared to guide any future planning proposals associated with the redevelopment of Colindale Underground Station and the immediate area adjoining the station.
The document sets out an approach for delivering a new station, with step-free access and increased capacity as part of a residential led mixed use proposal. The new station will be equipped to serve anticipated growth and development in the area.
The draft SPD aims to help inform the preparation of future planning applications associated with:
- development of a new Colindale Underground Station;
- redevelopment of the existing tube station, land above the tracks, the station car-park, 167-173 Colindale Avenue and Agar House (Units 1-6), Colindale Avenue; and
- delivery of highway, public realm and bridge improvements on Colindale Avenue immediately adjacent to the Underground Statio.
The main purpose of the draft SPD is to:
- establish the policy and design context for the redevelopment of the Underground Station and associated development in the immediately adjoining area, including above the rail tracks, the existing station car-park, 167-173 Colindale Avenue and Agar House (Units 1-6) Colindale Avenue;
- provide supplementary detail to existing planning policy;
- explain how development will be delivered and infrastructure investments secured;
- engage all interested stakeholders in the development process.
The draft SPD is supported by the Sustainability Appraisal, Equalities Impact Assessment, Statement of Consultation, Viability Assessment and a baseline Scoping Report.
