Aylesbury Area Action Plan
The Aylesbury Area Action Plan (AAP) is a document that will aim to bring about real change within the Aylesbury area over the coming years.
It is focussed on the Aylesbury estate itself, and considers the long-term needs of residents in the estate - the economy, employment, housing, shopping, transport, open spaces, and the overall look of the area. It considers what physical changes are needed in the area that will make a positive improvement to all of these factors.
However, the aim of the AAP is to improve the whole area to create a new sustainable community. Therefore, areas surrounding the estate, such as Surrey Square and Burgess Park are inside the AAP boundary and have been taken into consideration in developing the plan for the area.

Submission of the Aylesbury Area Action Plan to the Secretary of State
On 15 May 2009, we submitted the draft Aylesbury AAP to the Secretary of State for Communities and Local Goverment. The Secretary of State has appointed an inspector who will examine the AAP to ensure it is legally compliant, and also to check that it is effective, justified and consistent with national policies and the Mayor of London's development strategy (the London Plan)
You can download the publication draft of the Aylesbury Area Action Plan below (please note it has been split into different sections to allow it to be downloaded easily)
Documents which accompany the AAP
The publication draft of the Aylesbury AAP is accompanied by a Sustainability Appraisal Report, an Equalities Impact Assessment, an Appropriate Assessment, a Consultation Statement, a Consultation Plan and a number of background papers which set out the council’s evidence base and describe the council’s strategy.
We have also published the representations (pdf 1mb) we recieved in response to formal consultation on the draft AAP and our response to these. In the light of these responses and to help make the AAP consistent with our Core Strategy preferred options, we are proposing that the inspector makes a number of changes (pdf 1.03mb) to the draft AAP.
Copies of the above documents will also be available at the Town Hall, libraries and at the offices of the Aylesbury NDC, 1 Thurlow Street, London SE17 2US. Before arriving at the NDC’s offices, you should contact Philippa Stroud on 020 7358 4151 to book an appointment. The NDC’s offices are open Monday to Friday 9am -5pm.
