Results updated 16 Jul 2024

Following the consultation which yielded positive support for the scheme, there is some underground investigatory work being planned and which will be done in relation to the sustainable urban drainage solutions proposed (i.e. raingardens) in the plans. Once these have been done and the results analysed, the construction drawings can be finalised and the work programmed into the Council’s works schedule with construction of the scheme likely to start in autumn 2024.

Overview

Please note: the closing date for this consultation has now been extended to 31st August 2023.

Richmond Council wants the environment of its town and district centres to be attractive to both residents and visitors. We want people to enjoy spending more time in these centres by making them greener and with more space for pedestrians; this would also help traders and the local economy. 

The Council has identified some local centres for investment and is providing funding through a Public Realm Improvement Fund (PRIF) programme. One of these centres is Broad Street Teddington, where we would like to make improvements to the character and appearance of the street to enhance the experience for residents and visitors. 

The Council has commissioned specialist urban designers Metropolitan Workshop to create proposals for Broad Street. There are opportunities for short term (Phase 1) and long term (Phase 2) improvements.

We would now like to share the initial proposals with you and ask for your views.

The consultation document here sets out the proposed Phase 1 ideas for Broad Street, focusing initially on ‘urban greening’. The ideas have been developed in collaboration with stakeholders, whose local knowledge, enthusiasm and support will help to secure the long term future of the street.
