Harrow Council's proposed vision for the future of Harrow Town Centre, Wealdstone and Station Road, referred to collectively as the Heart of Harrow, is now out for consultation.

Alongside a blog on the Council website, ten drop-in sessions are being staged over the next six weeks where people can find out more, talk to planning officers and voice their opinions on this major planning policy.


The Council has drawn up a draft masterplan for the area following workshops with residents, businesses, developers and community groups throughout last year. The masterplan will shape the planning and investment decisions in the area. It could see millions of pounds of new investment by private enterprise, the Council and partners over the next decade, creating 3,000 new jobs alongside new homes and infrastructure.

Jamie Ratcliff, HCA Area Manager for North West London, said: "Our role has included sitting on the Area Action Plan Project Board to provide advice and ensure the alignment of emerging projects and priorities with potential funding. We recognise the importance of this scheme to the borough and are fully behind the consultation."
