Agent: Johnson Mowat
While the allocation of the site for employment use is supported it should be noted that the HLM Masterplan proposes an alternative boundary to SE37/E (which in turn effects the SE47/H and SE48/H boundaries), to align the employment site with the proposed access road off the existing roundabout off Westgate Hill Street A650 / B6135 / Cross Lane. This is considered a more logical alternative and sustainable approach.
This marginally increases the size of SE37/E (and reduces SE47/H and SE48/H).
