Supplementary Planning Documents (SPDs)
Current Supplementary Planning Documents
The Unitary Development Plan (UDP) was adopted in 2006 and is still the current key planning document for Haringey. Much of the detail to support the UDP policies is contained in accompanying documents called Supplementary Planning Documents (SPD). These set out the core planning policies on topics for the whole borough and include the Supplementary Planning Guidance (SPG) documents which are a material consideration for development control purposes.
The area specific planning documents include Tottenham Hale Urban Centre Masterplan, Haringey Heartlands Development Framework, Lawrence Road Planning Brief, Wood Green Town Centre SPD, South Tottenham House Extensions SPD and Sustainable Design and Construction SPD.
Supplementary Planning Guidance Notes 2006, which accompany the Unitary Development Plan, can be downloaded in PDF format from this page. These do not form part of the UDP and are not required to follow the same process as the UDP. Planning Policy Guidance 12 stipulates that SPG should be prepared in consultation with the general public, businesses, and other interested parties and their views should be taken into account before it is finalised. It is then the subject of a Council resolution to adopt it as supplementary guidance.

Tottenham Hale Urban Centre Masterplan SPD
The main purpose of a masterplan is to improve the efficiency of the planning system and development process, as well as improving the quality of any new development. A masterplan establishes a framework that will be used to assess any future planning applications, and provides advice on the nature of acceptable development, potential uses and design issues.
The Urban Centre Masterplan is a strategic guide that will help steer development in Tottenham Hale, paying particular regard to the area’s six key sites and various public realm initiatives. It provides a major opportunity to create a thriving, sustainable urban centre with a significant number of new homes, together with an integrated mix of employment, retail and leisure uses focused around an enhanced, fully accessible transport interchange.
On 31 October 2006, Haringey Council’s Executive adopted the Tottenham Hale Urban Centre Masterplan as a Supplementary Planning Document (SPD). The Masterplan (SPD) will supplement the policies contained within the Adopted Unitary Development Plan (2006) – in particular Policy AC2, as well as the Mayor’s London Plan and other relevant supplementary planning guidance notes. The Masterplan will be a material planning consideration and afforded significant weight when used to determine planning applications for the area.

Lawrence Road Planning Brief: Supplementary Planning Document
Haringey Council has prepared a planning brief to guide the regeneration of Lawrence Road. The brief is not a development proposal, but a planning policy document which provides guidance on the types of development and nature of uses that may be acceptable in the area.
On 16 October 2007, Haringey Council’s Cabinet formally adopted the Lawrence Road Planning Brief as a Supplementary Planning Document (SPD). The SPD will supplement the policies contained within the Haringey Unitary Development Plan (2006) and the Mayor’s London Plan (2004). It will be a material planning consideration and afforded significant weight when used to determine planning applications in the area.
A Sustainability Appraisal has been prepared to accompany the SPD, which ensures it accords with the principles and guidance on sustainability.
