8 John s Place are provided with high quality, luxurious communal gardens, which are secure and private. They are sheltered by a three storey high overhang in the building and are designed as a series of outdoor rooms. The space is unified through the strips of planting that run through and create a connection to the public space beyond. The soft landscape is carefully considered and will be high quality public realm and pedestrian friendly, traffic calmed access routes around the site will provide safe and convenient links to the surrounding areas. Potential users and visitors, regardless of age, gender or any disabilities are able to access and navigate unimpeded through all appropriate areas of each building and surrounding public realm. The internal building environment can be successfully and safely used by all of the potential users of the building.
9 Every opportunity will be taken to utilise colour, textures, materials and treatment of space to assist with the overall legibility and aesthetic value of the setting out of the building levels has been dictated by the existing pavement levels. With this in mind the design ensures that all primary entrances can be accessed from flat and level approaches. A secure car parking facility is available for residents to use. Residents can pay on an annual basis to use this facility. Cycling is promoted as part of the St. John s masterplan strategy. A proposed cycle hub facility will offer cycle parking, lockers and changing facilities for visitors and those not allocated a cycle parking space. It will also offer a cycle hire facility on a short and long term hire JOHN SSUSTAINABILITYREFUSE & RECYCLINGThe approach which has informed the energy strategy of the proposed development has been to reduce demand where possible before considering how best to supply it.
10 This means first identifying where energy demand can be eliminated and then how it can be used more efficiently. Residential areas will look to achieve at least a 19% reduction over current standards. Renewable energy on site is proposed to be provided by the district CHP system provided as part of the wider St. John s masterplan, with heating, hot water and electricity all provided via this low carbon source. The renewable energy strategy has been arrived at as part of a greater masterplanning exercise, which has considered all forms of renewable energy suitable for the site. At least 25% of the final building energy demand will be met by these low or zero carbon energy separate waste and servicing strategy has been developed which provides full details of the proposed strategy. Three laybys are proposed along Water Street for delivery vehicles to pull up.
