Details of the scheme

  • Library - Edgware Town Centre Redevelopment

    Town Centre

    We intend to build a new Town Square - a destination where people can come together. It will form the centrepiece of the re-development, which will take its inspiration from local architecture, honouring Edgware’s character and heritage.

  • Transport Interchange - Edgware Town Centre Redevelopment

    Public Transport

    To reduce congestion and to make crossings safer, we plan to move the bus garage underground, with the passenger terminal remaining at street level and sheltered bus stops dispersed along Station Road. This will support the future electrification of the bus network, reducing noise and pollution. There will also be new and improved connectivity to the Underground. 

    Meanwhile, pedestrians will find it easier to get around with more paths and safer crossings. And those on bikes can look forward to over 500 short term cycle parking spaces across the scheme.

  • Homes

    We want to deliver 3,365 new homes of different types and sizes. Up to 35% of homes will be affordable - subject to GLA grant funding - making a significant contribution to Barnet Council’s housing waiting list. These homes will be designed for everyone, from students, families, and those later in life, in an array of tenures including market sale, rental, shared ownership, and affordable rent. We also want our new homes to look contemporary while being sympathetic to other buildings in the area. 

  • New Homes - Edgware Town Centre Redevelopment

    Shops & Restaurants

    At the centre of the town will be a new, larger, Sainsbury’s (without a day of trading lost during construction), accessible by the new Sainsbury’s  car park and transport links. We'll have big high street brands plus independent shops and restaurants, so there is choice and variety for everyone.

  • Leisure Venues - Edgware Town Centre Redevelopment

    Leisure

    We’re pleased to announce that Edgware will get a new cinema. We have pop-ups and a food market planned. And there’ll be community leisure spaces to enjoy - including playgrounds, a new library, gym and swimming pool for families and beyond to enjoy the area.

  • Park - Edgware Town Centre Redevelopment

    Healthcare

    We’ve set aside 20,000 sq ft for health and wellbeing, which could include GP surgeries and dentists. We’re also talking to the NHS about their requirements. This will result in an offering bespoke to the needs of Edgware and its residents.

  • Open Space - Edgware Town Centre Redevelopment

    Open space

    We want to make Edgware a greener place with better air quality. We will create 4.8 ha of open space, plant 400 more trees, introduce a new public park with pedestrian-friendly routes linking neighbourhoods, and reinvigorate the nearby Deans Brook Nature Park, opening up parts which have been closed for 100 years.

  • Coworking - Edgware Town Centre Redevelopment

    Office space

    Besides being a great place to live, we want to make Edgware a great place to work. That’s why we are also planning a mixed-use building with over 50,000 ft sq of flexible offices, workspaces and hotel rooms - perfect for small businesses – right in the centre.
