A requirement through planning, for an increasing number of Local Authorities
Vital planning tool
The development of a digital model for London has long been called for as a vital planning tool for the city. VU.CITY is being rapidly adopted by many local authorities.
Used by over two thirds of London’s councils
VU.CITY has already been adopted by over two thirds of councils in London and is fast becoming a requirement for developers and designers of major projects in the capital.
Industry Standard
The City of London and London Boroughs of Westminster, Barking & Dagenham, Lambeth and Kingston upon Thames have all signed up with many more following suit. VU.CITY is fast becoming the industry standard method of considering development plans.
Effective engagement
VU.CITY is being used by public sector organisations including Transport for London and Historic England. The presentation of proposals through VU.CITY will speed up engagement with statutory consultees.
Aligned with Draft London Plan
The Draft London Plan makes specific reference to the use of digital modelling encouraging its use “as part of the plan-making process to assess growth options and forms and development” and “to help identify these areas (for tall building locations), assess tall building proposals and aid public consultation and engagement”.
Embrace the change
It is vital for architects, land owners and developers to understand and plan for the use of VU.CITY as part of the development planning process.
- “Westminster has been looking for a reliable and accurate dynamic 3D computer model for some time. VU.CITY is exactly what we were looking for and it is going to change the way planning happens in London.”John Walker, Director of Planning – Westminster City Council
- “This is the future, physical models of London are good but they don’t tell the whole story. VU.CITY enables us to give developers a better understanding of how we want to do business and the opportunities available in our borough. It gives members of the council and local residents an understanding of how the whole borough is developing.”Darren Rodwell, Leader - London Borough of Barking and Dagenham
