In December 2024, we presented our emerging proposals, asking for feedback on:
New homes for Vauxhall

We heard
We have
Local people would like to see more greenery and green space on site
Appointed a specialist landscape architect who is working up designs for increased and improved green spaces on site.
There was a desire for improved pedestrian and cycle access through the site
Begun working with specialist transport consultants who are developing plans for new pedestrian and cycle links through the site, improving access to the station and river for everyone.
Local people wanted to see some space that provided services for them
Developed proposals for a new medical centre, and are in conversations with the local NHS Trust to design facilities around the present and future requirements of the local community.
There was a desire to see new retail and food and beverage offering that local people could access
Expanded our retail offering, with space that could provide for new shops, cafes, restaurants and bars.
Local people wanted to see new homes, including affordable tenures
Updated our proposals for new homes, which will provide circa 1,000 new homes, with a target of 35% at affordable levels by habitable room.
Across both of our public exhibitions and stall at the Vauxhall City Farm Christmas Market we engaged with over 400 people.
Following our second round of consultation we have continued to make a donation for every survey that has been completed to the Vauxhall Gardens Community Centre Food Bank.
