The scheme also includes a new pedestrian subway underneath Battersea Park Road, linking Stewards Road with the new power station development and providing another route into tube station.

A total of 1,305 homes would be built in this phase, including 103 which will be available for Wandsworth residents on low and middle incomes to rent at a reduced rate.
