OAPF Draft Vision and Principles Engagement 2020 – This consultation is closed
The Royal Docks and Beckton Riverside Opportunity Area (OA) is one of the largest regeneration areas in London and is in the heart of the Thames Gateway. The Mayor of London is consulting on the draft Royal Docks and Beckton Riverside Opportunity Area Planning
Framework (OAPF). It is vital that local people sit at the heart of these plans, to ensure future development meets with community needs, while celebrating the area's heritage.
This website hosted the engagement on draft OAPF Vision and Principles that took place in Autumn 2020. Feedback received during that phase informs the draft
OAPF which is now open to consultation. This will be adopted as a London Plan Guidance (LPG) in summer/autumn 2022.
You can give us your feedback on the Draft OAPF here:
