Site constraints 5
3 Article 4 directions
Highams Park District Centre · Other Article 4 Direction Area · District Centre related A4D. Named permitted development rights are withdrawn here.
An Article 4 direction withdraws particular permitted development rights, so work that would normally need no application needs one here. Not every council has published its directions.
Air quality management area: Waltham Forest AQMA
The council has declared the area as failing an air quality objective.
Schemes that add traffic, parking or combustion plant are assessed against the area's action plan and may need an air quality assessment.
Town centre: Highams Park
A designated centre in the London Plan.
Shops, services and active frontages are protected in centres, and main town centre uses are steered here first.
Also on the record
Inside the Waltham Forest built-up area; Public transport access: PTAL 2 (poor), TfL 2023, for the 100 m square.
