Future Peckham
The future of Peckham and Nunhead is in your hands...
Do you care about the future of your area? What should be changed? What should stay the same?
Southwark Council is running a public discussion to give you the opportunity to express your view on how Peckham and Nunhead should look like in 2025.
The Peckham and Nunhead Area Action Plan is a planning document that will help bring long lasting improvements to Peckham and Nunhead by 2020. It does this by making sure that over the next fifteen years we get the right development needed to support a healthy, safe and prosperous community.
The area action plan will change the planning policies for Peckham and Nunhead, and will control things like:
- The look and function of the town centre, including the mix of shops and other activities
- What is built on different sites
- The size and design of new buildings
- The amount and type of new homes built and where they go
- The impact of new development on the environment and traffic
- The community facilities needed to support the community
The area action plan will help fund improvements over the long term by making sure private developers contribute to things like improving public spaces and upgrading public transport.
What's next?
