BPTW operated as joint lead consultant throughout the pre-application process, leading discussions with housing, transport and a number of member forums to determination at various planning and cabinet meetings. Adhering to Newham’s Sustainable Community Strategy for 2010-2013, BPTW were instrumental in engaging with the local community which resulted in strong community backing and planning approval being achieved for the site in 2013.
