A new community in Hillingdon
In addition to building excellent healthcare services, this redevelopment provides an opportunity to deliver much needed housing for residents across the borough. This could include key worker housing in close proximity to the hospital and a significant number of affordable homes.
When the new hospital opens, the land occupied by the current hospital will be cleared. In identifying the best use for that land, we have first worked with our health and care partners to identify whether there are any health and care services which could be provided in the areas of the site which will not be used by the new hospital.
That exercise has been completed and our planning permission includes our plans for the new hospital and transport, as well as the potential for housing on the unused land.
The masterplan includes a proposal for three areas of housing, in keeping with the surrounding areas, and providing around 320 properties, predominantly 2-3 bed houses, which responds to the demand for property in the area.
