The Oaks Redevelopment Plans
All change in Acton as refurbishment proposals submitted
Major new plans for The Oaks Shopping Centre have gone on display in Acton, and are now available to view at a new website.
Owners, Acton Regeneration Company Ltd, are proposing a refurbishment programme described as an ' exciting new shopping destination and mixed-use development'.
As well as a 'high quality foodstore that will draw more people to Acton' the developers are intending to build 124 new homes.
The proposals include approximately retail units, a residential development above the existing Oaks Shopping Centre, new modern offices, car-parking and improved pedestrian access.
Previoulsy the site of the Globe cinema The Oaks was redeveloped in 1965 as a shopping centre and again in the 1990s. The centre is described as run-down and the featureless car-park in Churchfield Road presents an opportunity for a 'landmark' development.
'Maddox & Associates' believe the new development will bring around 60m investment into the local economy.
A planning application is being submitted to Ealing Council this month and if approved work is expected to start at the site early next year.
