Intensification Areas are built up areas with good existing or potential public transport links and can support redevelopment at higher than existing densities. They have significant capacity for new jobs and homes but at a level below that which can be achieved in the Opportunity Areas. The GIS files show the indicative boundaries, please contact the relevant London Borough to confirm accuracy. NOTE:...

Opportunity Areas are London’s major source of brownfield land with significant capacity for new housing, commercial and other development linked to existing or potential improvements to public transport accessibility. Typically they can accommodate at least 5,000 jobs or 2,500 new homes or a combination of the two, along with other supporting facilities and infrastructure. The Opportunity Area Planning Frameworks report sets out the background and other information including current progress on Opportunity Area Planning Frameworks. https://www.london.gov.uk/what-we-do/planning/implementing-london-plan/opportunity-areas
