    The need for changeThis redevelopment will be the fourth complete

    regeneration of the site. It is needed because:

    The way the MPS uses the site has changed.

    The Peel Centre was first developed by the

    Metropolitan Police almost 80 years ago and it

    was used as the training centre for the Met until2000. Today training makes up only 40% of our use

    of the site and is changing further, with greater use

    of technology, e-learning and the development of five

    Regional Learning Centres, of which the Peel Centre

    is one. The site also hosts some corporate services

    and a range of operational uses which are often based

    in buildings designed for a very different purpose.

    Most of the facilities are outdated. Mainly built

    in the 1960s and 1970s, too many buildings are in

    urgent need of repair or upgrading and no longer

    provide the quality of accommodation we want

    for our officers and staff.

    The site is far larger than we need today.

    With changes in its use, technological advancement

    and new ways of working, the MPS simply does not

    need a 73 acre site any more, with buildings spread

    out across a huge area, a sports field and houses.

    It would be preferable to have new facilities all

    located together.

    There is an inefficient use of space. Buildings are

    under-utilised. Our analysis shows we actually needonly around a fifth of the space currently provided

    in the future.

    Energy consumption is unsustainably high.

    Outdated buildings and inefficient use of space

    mean that we could dramatically reduce energy

    consumption by redeveloping the site.

    The site costs a great deal of money to maintain.

    Delivering change is an important part of the MPSs

    wider Corporate Real Estate agenda to make the

    most efficient use of its properties - saving money

    from its estate and focusing resources on front

    line policing.

    At the same time, the London Borough of Barnet

    has identified the Peel Centre as one of the

    essential components for the regeneration of

    the Colindale area as described in their Colindale

    Area Action Plan, adopted in March 2010.

    The comprehensive regeneration of the site will also

    support the Mayor of Londons ambitions to increase

    the amount of housing, public open space andeducational facilities in London.

    WelcomeThe Peel Centre Site is changing

    The Mayors Office for Policing and Crime (MOPAC)

    and the Metropolitan Police Service (MPS) are

    planning the regeneration of the 73 acre Peel Centre

    Site in North London.

    Plans include a modern new-build facility for training

    and operational policing, retaining policing use on the

    site first developed by the MPS in the 1930s.

    The remainder of the site will be opened up to the

    public for the first time, creating new homes, jobs,

    shops, open space and a new primary school for the

    Colindale area.Welcome to the first public exhibition which shows

    you our emerging proposals.

    Planning for the fourth evolution

    of the site to deliver facilities fit

    for the needs of modern policing

    and to reflect the fact that the way

    we now use the Peel Centre has

    changed dramatically

    Following a peak in 2001/02,

    cadet training ceased. The Simpson

    Hall end of the estate was converted

    to offices, residential training ceased,

    and the Sir John Stevens Building

    (CCC) opened

    Original Peel House was

    replaced, the residential towers

    developed and the Simpson Hall

    end and Swim/Gym were built

    Site was developed for police use

    About the areaColindale is located at the western end of the

    London Borough of Barnet and around 10 miles

    from central London.

    It is well connected on the strategic road network

    with the M1 Motorway and Edgware Road definingits eastern and western borders and linking the area

    in to central London and out to Hertfordshire, Luton

    and the Midlands.

    Colindale Underground Station and local bus routes

    provide good public transport access with central

    London less than 30 minutes away by Tube.

    The area has a rich industrial and aviation past.

    More recently Colindale has seen significant new

    residential development including at Beaufort Park

    and the former Colindale Hospital site.

    Barnet and the GLA have exciting plans for the areas

    future fitting the Councils Three Strands approach

    to Protect, Enhance and Grow. Colindale will be the

    major location for new homes within the borough

    over the next 10-15 years.

    Our visionOur plans are based upon building new police

    facilities to provide a modern working environment,

    making best use of new technology, much more

    efficient use of space and supporting the needs of

    current policing.

    The rest of the site will be opened up to the public,

    creating new homes, jobs, shops and open space,

    as well as a new primary school, as part of the wider

    regeneration of the Colindale area.

    Constraintsand opportunitiesThe site presents challenges and opportunities which

    our master planners have responded to in developing

    these emerging proposals.

    Constraints

    Noise Development on the site will need to

    respond to external noise sources. These include

    the elevated main line rail tracks and M1 motorway

    east of the site, and the northern line tube tracks

    south of the site.

    Access Opportunities for access to the site are

    limited by highways junctions on Colindale Avenue

    and Aerodrome Road and the extent of the securefrontage required for the retained police land.

    Trees The site contains a number of good quality,

    mature trees some of which will be retained

    where practical and appropriate. The quality of the

    various trees on the site has been recorded following

    a tree survey. This identifies that there are also a

    large number of trees that are in a poor state of

    health or not of the required quality to retain.

    Land form Although the site is generally flat

    there are localised level changes in the form of

    embankments and ramps. The development will

    need to respond to the predominant levels on the

    site and ensure that inclusive access is maximised.

    Peel link The Adopted Colindale Area Action Plan

    promotes a north-south link between Aerodrome

    Road and Colindeep Lane via the underpass on the

    southern boundary of the site. The delivery of this

    and the form it takes will be subject to technical

    studies which are ongoing.

    OpportunitiesConnectivity The site has previously been secure

    and not open to public access. Development of

    the site will enable improved pedestrian and cyclist

    movement though the area.

    Community facilities The new development

    will improve the local retail facilities. The proposed

    new primary school will meet education demand and

    could provide out of hours community facilities.

    The proposed new park will provide a substantial

    green space at the heart of the development for

    the wider community.

    Colindale regeneration New scheme meets the

    ambitions of the London Borough of Barnet by

    creating jobs and supporting the local economy.New homes The development will provide a range

    of high quality new homes including houses and

    apartments at a variety of densities. There is also the

    potential to provide student housing.

    New police facilities Provision of new police

    facilities equipped for the needs of modern policing.

    The retained site also allows flexibility for expansion

    and change for future generations of policing.

    Public realm andopen spaceBarnet is known for the quality of its parks and open

    spaces. Opening up the site to the public will enable

    us to create a new community park for the area.

    A substantial public park - which could potentially be

    thesizeofsixormoreWembleyfootballpitches-will

    provide a great place for people to spend their leisure

    time.Itwillbewelllandscapedandeasilyaccessible

    from Colindale Avenue, Aerodrome Road and the

    surrounding area.

    Many of the new houses and apartments will have

    views looking over the park, enhancing the security

    of the area.

    We would like to include playing fields within the

    park adding to existing local public sporting facilities.

    We also envisage separate playing fields on the

    school site which could be open to the public outside

    school hours.

    As part of our work to minimise the environmental

    impact we intend to create a pond within the park

    which will assist with rain water drainage as well

    as enhancing the attractiveness of the area.

    We also propose to create two smaller green

    spaces as part of the residential development tothe west of the park.

    The existing buildings on site are no longer

    optimal and in some cases have reached the

    end of their natural life. The project represents a

    vital opportunity to rationalise, consolidate and

    substantially improve facilities.

    Inresponsetothemasterplanandinrecognition

    Metropolitan Police, the scheme creates anidentifiable landmark facing the park. The site at the

    eastern end of the Retained Land addresses the new

    park and Aerodrome Road equally.

    The overall form of the building is to be broken

    into three elements that relate to the urban grain,

    allow views between the park and surrounding

    context and respond to the diverse requirements of

    the brief. These elements are arranged in such a way

    as to contain key external spaces such as a Parade

    Square and a Memorial Garden. The listed statue of

    Sir Robert Peel will be relocated into these new

    external spaces.

    Our design team and environmental consultants are

    working to minimise the environmental impact of the

    proposals and at the same time reducing the energy

    Energy

    Developmentproposalswillconsiderenergy

    efficiency of new homes and non-residential buildings

    and the potential use of renewable energy systems.

    Drainage

    Our design team are developing a surface water

    drainage strategy which optimises the use of

    sustainabledrainagesystems(SuDS)inlinewith

    the most recent regulation and the increasing

    attention to the sustainable management of water

    resources. The proposals will ensure the sustainable

    management of surface water runoff while providing

    ecological benefit and providing amenity. One of

    the potential options our team is currently

    investigating is the creation of water features in the

    public parks. These would hold surface water runoff

    reducing flood risk downstream, would improve

    water quality and provide a focal point within the

    public open space.

    Healhy living / Environmenal impacs

    The proposals recognise the need to support

    healthy and sustainable communities, minimising

    their environmental impact. Features will include

    the following:

    Encouragementofwalking,cyclinganduseofpublic transport

    Facilitiestopromotesustainablewaste

    management practises

    Measurestoenhanceresourceefficiency,

    including water use

    Sustainability principles will be integrated throughout

    the design, construction and operation with a focus

    on environmental protection and enhancement.

    Examples of how these will be achieved include:
