11 Phasing and Implementation
Phasing
11.1 A Construction Management Plan is submitted in support of the application and appended to Chapter 6 of the
Environmental Statement. It describes the anticipated demolition and construction programme for the Development.
11.2 For the purposes of the Environmental Impact Assessment, demolition is assumed to commence in early 2013 and
complete in 2014, however this is not absolute and is dependent on completion of legal, planning and leasing agreements
and market conditions.
11.3 At this stage the Development is anticipated to be split into five construction phases, these are shown in Appendix B of
the Construction Management Plan and summarised below. However, the phasing programme is indicative and is likely
to change:
Phase 1 – Plot H4, including completion of 50% of the central park area.
Phase 2 – Plot H1, Plot H12 (Energy Centre) and utilities infrastructure within Heygate Street.
Phase 3 – Plot H2, Plot H5 and completion of central park area.
Phase 4 – Plot H3 and Plot H7.
Phase 5 – Plots H6, H10, H11a, H11b, and Plot H13.
Implementation
11.4 As an outline planning application, any approval would be subject to the submission of further details as reserved
matters, in the normal way, and will be regulated by the Design Strategy Document, Development Specification and
Parameter Plans.
11.5 It is assumed that additional information will be required at the appropriate time in respect of the various phases of the
Development, in particular where the Environmental Statement identifies mitigation measures to ameliorate the effects
of the Development. Where appropriate, this would be enforced through planning conditions, a Section 106 Agreement,
and any other agreements as required. The scope and scale of these agreements formed part of the pre-application
discussions and will continue to be discussed during the determination of the application.
11.6 It will be important that the planning conditions and Section 106 requirements allow for phased discharge of relevant
details. The Construction Management Plan explains the construction sequence that is anticipated at this stage, however
in view of the development period, it is realistic to assume that the phasing may change.
11.7 Implementation of the Development will also be subject to other approvals as necessary, such as Section 278 Highways
Agreement, traffic regulation orders and associated consents. This is set out in the Transport Assessment.
