In reply to brencud's question, yes, a planning application for changing the shop front would only include information about the frontage. Deliveries, opening hours etc would not be relevant.

I agree that deliveries are likely to be problematic. Might it be worth approaching Morrisons to ask what their delivery plans are (eg how many deliveries per day; at what times; what size lorries)? Then we can actually judge whether we think their plans are feasible or not. Although there's no formal mechanism to object, at least we could start a dialogue with them to express any concerns we may have.

As we know, the shop is on a red route. According to the current Streetview images, this section of red route has red double lines that extend partly into Havelock Walk (up to No6 on the right hand side, and around the back of Santander's building on the left). According to TfL's website:

"Vehicles are not allowed to stop at any time on double red lines. They operate every day, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year and do not require a time plate (sign)."

So delivery lorries won't be able to stop outside or in the entrance to Havelock Walk (unless they want to repeatedly receive penalty charges and the resulting ill-will from the local population).

The rest of Havelock Walk is a Controlled Parking Zone with hours of Mon-Fri 9am-5pm. What does that mean - is it permit holders only during those periods?

The restrictions at the loading bay outside Energie are (again according to Streetview):

No stopping Mon-Fri 7am-7pm
except between 10am-4pm for loading (maximum 20 minutes)


So there's scope for them to unload there. Which will mean, as someone has already pointed out, having to wheel the trolleys along that stretch of pavement dodging pedestrians and people waiting at the bus stop.

Does approaching Morrisons to ask about this seem like a good idea?
