Introduction

 
A2 Housing Group, in partnership with Spelthorne Borough Council, other partners and residents are proposing to redevelop part of Stanwell in a major regeneration project, ‘Stanwell New Start’. Not only will the housing around Explorer Avenue, Mulberry Avenue, Holywell Way, Holywell Close, Longford Way, Longford Avenue, Laburnum Way and Long Lane be replaced with new homes built to the Decent Homes standards, but several local community facilities will be improved and new amenities introduced.
 


Latest news

Since we submitted the plans in April we have received comments from various agencies and departments relating to the following technical issues:

Ecology
The surveys we carried out last year suggested that bats could exist in the area, but that it was unlikely. Natural England requested we extend the study and provide current data.

Environmental
Spelthorne’s tree specialist identified a number of mature trees that they preferred we retained in the design of Phase 1.

Drainage
The Environment Agency asked us to locate the West Bedfont Ditch and if possible re-open this ancient culvert. The ditch is located under Long Lane and does not affect Stanwell New Start.

Traffic and Highways
The County’s Highways department requested we carry out further studies on the traffic flow.


We have carried out the further work and are refining the detailed plan for Phase 1 to reflect the amendments. The revised plans will be on display for public view at the Community House in September prior to substitution. We expect the plans will be approved in early December and work will start on site before the end of the year.
