Locals in the Enfield area of London have been invited to a event on the £6 billion Meridian Water scheme.

The scheme will see 10,000 homes and 6,000 jobs created, alongside world-class public spaces, community facilities and road and rail networks.

This announcement comes after plans were submitted by Enfield Council for up to 2,300 homes and one of London's parks on the site of the scheme.

Enfield Council's Leader, Cllr Nesil Caliskan, said: "Our proposals for Phase Two of Meridian Water will, if granted planning permission, provide thousands of homes and first-class infrastructure.

"It will play a significant part in the Council's plans to provide thousands of new homes and jobs on the site which local residents will be the primary beneficiary of.

"Enfield Council's corporate priority is to provide much needed housing and jobs for local people, growing the local economy and enhancing our local communities."

The upcoming drop-in event will be held at Edmonton Green Library on Friday 06 September from 11am to 4pm.
