Streetscape Guidance Introduction 08<br />

1.10 Do I require approval?<br />

All proposals on the TLRN require formal<br />

approval from the SDRG. There is also an<br />

exceptions process for non-standard materials<br />

which is detailed below.<br />

Proposals that are subject to our exceptions<br />

process may be invited to return to the SDRG<br />

periodically to ensure visibility of progress.<br />

Exception decisions will generally be informed<br />

within eight weeks if no further presentations<br />

have been requested by the SDRG. Additional<br />

information regarding the exceptions process can<br />

be made by contacting the streetscape manager<br />

at StreetscapeGuidance@tfl.gov.uk<br />

Figure 8: TfL’s exceptions process<br />

1. Pre-exception<br />

Review the Streetscape Guidance – You’ll need to provide<br />

evidence that the materials proposed in the guidance do not offer<br />

a better solution<br />

2. Initial enquiry<br />

3. Application<br />

Contact the streetscape manager – Speak to the streetscape<br />

manager about your proposal to determine whether an exception<br />

should be sought<br />

Complete a Streetscape exceptions request form – Forward the<br />

exceptions request form to the streetscape manager<br />

Figure 9: Exhibition Road required multiple<br />

exceptions and approvals from SDRG<br />

4. Review<br />

Internal review – You may be required to attend an SDRG meeting<br />

to review your proposal. However, there are some instances where an<br />

exception can be assessed internally<br />

5. Exception decision<br />

Notification – You will be informed of the outcome of your application<br />

shortly after the SDRG meeting or within eight weeks of the initial<br />

application
