Design and Crime Supplementary Planning Document

The Design and Crime Supplementary Planning Document (SPD) will be used to help assess and determine planning applications and is intended to guide architects, developers, landscape architects and urban designers in designing out crime.

It is important that community safety considerations should be an inherent part of the design process, and should inform development at an early stage. The SPD supports Policy DES11 of the Unitary Development Plan (UDP) and aims to complement Salford's Crime and Disorder Strategy and the Police's "Secured By Design" initiative.

Although this SPD is aimed primarily at new development, it is also of relevance to existing developments and owners and occupiers are encouraged to introduce crime prevention measures where appropriate and practical. The provisions of this SPD will be implemented primarily through the development control process and the determination of planning applications.

The Design and Crime Supplementary Planning Document (SPD) was adopted by the council on 19 July 2006.

Printed copies of the SPD are also available to view:

• at Salford Libraries
• at Salford Civic Centre, Chorley Road, Swinton, Salford.(Opening times: Monday to Friday, 8.30am to 4.30pm)
