Transport planner JMP has been commissioned by Lambeth College to prepare a transport assessment to support a new planning application for redevelopment of its Brixton Centre campus in South London.
The proposal is to demolish existing buildings and re-develop the site to provide approximately 12,750 sq m of education gross floor space, situated within a single building, with a maximum height of four storeys on the northern boundary. This will
increase the existing floor space by approximately 5,000 sq m.
A number of classrooms and workshops will include: media studios, motorcycle studios and workshop, building & construction workshops, hairdressing & beauty, fitness suite, activity centre, multi-use exhibition and meeting place, and a café.
JMP has provided a comprehensive assessment of the existing travel demands of the site, and the impact that the Brixton Centre development proposals may have on the existing public transport infrastructure. It has also updated the College’s Travel Plan to support the planning application.
