4.0 RECOMMENDATIONS

Where a feature in Beckton already works, it is advised that policy continue to preserve this to uphold what already works for people. To create child friendly urban landscapes, policy, participation, design, and management need to be revised and addressed holistically. From such, can communities flourish to build a greater sense of community, include more sustainable high streets and public spaces, and effectively support individuals into good work. Recommendations of action are presented in table(s) 4.1, in its efforts to enhance the explored features relating to social cohesion. It is important to note that some of those recommendations provide actions that require further assessment of Beckton’s physical infrastructure and social dilemma, nonetheless all of them should be tailored to the location in which they would be applied into. Existing features within the neighbourhood, require deep thought into how an intervention will impact the urban fabric and the people surrounding it. The recommendations of action presented are further prioritised in terms of their practical application and urgency to the existing urban scape – this is expanded on below.
