News: London planning. (Strategic guidance encourages tourism and regeneration)
Article Abstract:
Strategic planning guidance for London has been published by the government, calling on planners to encourage hotel, exhibition hall and art quarter developments, and 234,000 further dwellings by 2006. The guidance has been criticised by the London Planning Advisory Committee, contesting the claim of the shortage of medium priced bed space. Regeneration advice concentrates on London corridors and central area margins, and the Thames is earmarked as an important open space.
