About this application

This is a planning application at Pavement Opposite 222B London Road Croydon CR0 2TF. Croydon has handled 19,636 applications of this type. This one was decided in 131 days, 11 weeks longer than Croydon's typical decision time. There has been 1 other application at this address. We hold 5,298 applications in total for the CR0 postcode area.

Why it was refused

  1. The development due to its siting would result in a detrimental impact on pedestrian safety as it would impede pedestrian movement, contrary to Policy DM29 of the Croydon Local Plan (2018) and Policy T4 of the London Plan (2021).
  2. The development due to its siting would fail to be subordinate to the public pavement and would dominate the immediate public realm. The development therefore conflicts with Croydon Local Plan (2018) Policy SP4, London Plan (2021) Policy D8 and the Croydon Public Realm Design Guide (2019).

From the council's decision notice.
