Guidance

Depending upon your proposed development, you may need to provide a Design and Access Statement with your application. Statements should explain how access arrangements would ensure that all users will have equal and convenient access to buildings and spaces and the public transport network. The Statement should address the need for flexibility of the development and how it may adapt to changing needs. You can download:
