Town & country planning

R (on the application of Licensed Taxi Drivers) v Transport for London [2016] EWHC 233 (Admin), [2016] All ER (D) 108 (Feb)

The Administrative Court dismissed the Licensed Taxi Drivers Association’s application for judicial review, seeking a declaration that Transport for London’s (TfL) construction of the East-West Cycle Superhighway without planning permission constituted a breach of planning control. Planning permission was not required, as TfL had not erred in law and had not been irrational in concluding that there had been no significant adverse environmental effect from the proposal as a whole.
