Certain topics are still covered by old-style SPG. Each SPG relates to a specific aspect of the Stratford-on-Avon District Local Plan Review. As such, they remain relevant and legally valid.
Stratford-upon-Avon High Street Study
Adopted as Supplementary Planning Guidance on 2 November 2009. This is a study of the High Street streetscape and building frontages. It sets out a framework of works to enhance the 'public realm' and inform owners of appropriate treatments.
This document is a material consideration to inform planning applications affecting the High Street. There is also an expectation that the principles in the document should be applied to Stratford-upon-Avon town centre as a whole.

Provision of Open Space
In February 2005 the District Council adopted guidance for assessing the open space requirement on development sites in Stratford-upon-Avon and the Main Rural Centres. Where provision is not made on site, a methodology is provided for calculating the level of financial contribution towards off-site provision.
An audit of open space in Stratford-upon-Avon and the Main Rural Centres has been carried out to assist the operation of this guidance.

Lorries in the Vale of Evesham
In November 2001 the District Council, along with Cotswold and Wychavon District Councils, adopted guidance to control the location of new development and the expansion of existing businesses that would generate additional HGV movements in the Vale of Evesham.
The guidance is a material consideration in assessing development proposals in the area shown on the map below. It should be used together with saved policies in the District Local Plan Review and the emerging Core Strategy.
