Planning committee
Decided by Kensington and Chelsea Planning Applications Committee on 28 Apr 2026. The council has not yet issued its decision notice.
Approved unanimously
As officers recommended.
- Officers advised approval because the temporary open space would provide public benefits while protecting the wharf’s future freight use.
- The GLA accepted the temporary use in principle, while the Port of London Authority objected and TfL welcomed the park subject to detailed matters.
- The committee voted unanimously to grant permission with the report’s conditions, subject to completion of a legal agreement.
