Momentum provided full consultancy support to help deliver seven industrial units comprising a total 28,089sqm GEA of flexible industrial use (Class E(g)(iii), Class B2 and B8) with ancillary office space, parking and associated works including creation of service yards, boundary treatments and landscaping.
Due to the location of the site, innovative and complex transport solutions were required to unlock the development to facilitate movements through the site and onwards through the wider highway network. The proposed vehicular access to the site will be primarily via the existing Goat Road access, which has been enhanced to better serve the Jewson’s site and the proposed development site through a robust junction modelling assessment, and the development of a highway design package developed by the Momentum team.
Momentum has also played a pivotal role promoting innovative sustainable solutions to serve the development site, this includes a commitment to provide an improved access to the site for pedestrians and cyclists via Drake Road.
As part of the scheme, Momentum has worked in close collaboration with key stakeholders to develop a new roundabout to replace the existing Goat Road / Carshalton Road (A237) junction. Informed by traffic modelling, the solution was welcomed at the public consultation.
Each unit is proposed to have a provision of car and cycle parking to cater for staff and visitors, in compliance with the standards set out in the London Plan (2021). In total, the proposed development would provide a minimum of 30 short-stay and 66 long-stay cycle parking spaces, and a maximum of 176 car parking spaces.
