Client: Oasis Community Learning
TPP provided transport and travel planning advice to support the planning application for the Oasis Academy Southbank, a 600 student secondary ‘free’ school located within the London Borough of Lambeth. The planning application was completed in two phases. For Phase 1, TPP prepared a Transport Statement for a 120 student, year seven only school. For Phase 2, TPP prepared a Transport Assessment and School Travel Plan for an extension to the existing school for a further 480 student places for year’s eight to eleven.
TPP also assisted in the preparation of a School Management Plan which included a School arrival and departure regime, setting out the protocol for students arriving and departing the school in the morning and evening, particularly with regard to crossing the nearby main roads, and for staff supervising their arrival and departure. TPP assisted in negotiations to bring forward funding for a pedestrian crossing over one of the main roads adjacent to the school site, prepared general arrangement drawings and undertook junction modelling of nearby signal controlled junction to demonstrate how a signal controlled pedestrian crossing could be integrated into the junction without causing an impact.
