Proposal description

The development will consist of the continued use (including refurbishment and remodelling) of 18,982sq.m. and the development of an additional 43sq.m., resulting in a scheme with a total gross floorspace of 19,025sq.m., excluding car parking at Basement Level (14,210sq.m.) (the existing centre measures some 18,982sq.m. gross floor area (33,243sq.m. including basement car parking)); the proposed development will include some reorganisation of existing floorspace, which results in a change of use from: public bar to circulation/ancillary (215sq.m.); car park to circulation/ancillary (51sq.m.); restaurant to circulation/ancillary (4sq.m.); public bar to restaurant (460sq.m.); public bar to retail (170sq.m.); off licence to retail (150sq.m.); public bar to gym (310sq.m.); office to gym (491sq.m.); beauty salon to gym (135sq.m.); and public bar to storage (458sq.m.); the proposed development will consist of: an increase in retail use by 170sq.m. gross retail area (from 7,791sq.m. to 7,961sq.m. gross retail area in total); an increase in restaurant use by 456sq.m. (from 911sq.m. to 1,367sq.m.); an increase in stockrooms by 458sq.m. (from 1,206sq.m. to 1,664sq.m.); an increase in ancillary space by 276sq.m. (from 2,858sq.m. to 3,134sq.m.) (ancillary space includes areas such as service corridors, circulation, toilets, staff areas, plant areas, substations and switchrooms); a decrease in office use by 491sq.m. (from 2,397sq.m. to 1,906sq.m.); a decrease in non-retail services by 135sq.m. (from 780sq.m. to 645sq.m.); a decrease in public bars by 1,627sq.m. (from 2,700sq.m. to 1,073sq.m.); the provision of a gym (936sq.m.); and a decrease in car parking provision by 6 No. spaces (from 541 no. to 535 no. spaces) attributable to the slight reorganisation of space at Basement Level; the development also includes: the continued use of the existing vehicular access/egress points via Cromwellsfort Road and Whitehall Road West and the continued use of pedestrian (including disabled) access; the provision of all hard and soft landscaping; lifts/travellators; plant areas; associated signage; changes in level; boundary treatments; associated elevational changes; and all other associated site excavation and site development works above and below ground.
