Legend 'Point and Click' Links
The web version of the Adopted Wycombe District Council Local Plan was created in March 2004. The same maps, legends and written statement that appear in the web version are used in the printed version.
The web site has been divided into a left and right frame. Both frames are scrollable, either up/down or left/right. The left frame always contains the legend to the maps within the Plan. The right frame contains either the Written Statement or the Plan's maps. In its default setting the right frame contains the contents to the Written Statement.
The Legend is a key and summary to the graphic depiction of the various policies contained within the Plan's maps. When a Plan map is displayed in the right frame, please refer to the Legend to identify the policies shown.
Legend 'Point and Click' Links
The Legend panel provides links to other areas of the Plan web site. Moving the arrow cursor over the panel will identify these links by changing the arrow to a hand. A text prompt (either 'Click for Map' or Click for (name of a policy, e.g. H16)' will appear identifying where the link will take the user when moving the arrow cursor over individual entries in the legend.
The Help page, contents to the Written Statement and the Inset Locator Map can all be selected by clicking the appropriate links at the top of the Legend panel.
Two drop down menus are also available to aid navigation. The first drop down menu allows you to choose one of the ten maps that make up the Local Plan. By selecting your map you will see an overview of the chosen map appear in the right frame. From this overview map you can select the area of map you wish to view in detail.
The second drop down menu is an alphabetisised list of key places within the Wycombe District. By selecting a place you will see a detailed area of map that contains that place appear in the right frame. Please note that some places may appear across more than one area of map.
The Written Statement provides comprehensive details of the Local Plan and its policies. From the Written Statement Contents the user can select all chapters. Sections within a chapter and individual policies can be selected from the index and the start of each chapter. The Appendices (1-10) are held as .pdf files and require Adobe Acrobat Reader to access.
To aid navigation simplified overview maps of all Plans within the Wycombe District Local Plan have been created. The Inset Locator Map can be selected from the Legend panel and doing so will replace the contents page of the Written Statement in the right frame.
From the Inset Locator Map the user can select the Main Settlement/Inset Maps within Wycombe District, namely:
All of the Settlement/Inset maps have an overview map from which you can choose to view an area of map in more detail. It is possible to move to other areas of a map by clicking the North, South, East and West arrow buttons that border each map area or by clicking the small map button at the top of the page. This button returns the user to the relevant overview map from which another area of a map can be selected.
Settlement/Inset Maps can also be selected from the 'Choose a map' drop-down menu at the top of the Legend panel.
Key places in the Wycombe District can be seen on a map by selecting from the 'Choose a place' drop down menu near the top of the Legend panel.
To interchange between the written statement and the maps, your can use the 'Back' and 'Forward' buttons within the toolbar of your web browser.
