Transforming connections and boosting the local economy

Our plans will improve connections between Chipping Barnet and Underhill and deliver new community assets that will help support and revitalise the town centres.

Development along Meadway and Barnet Hill will create further opportunities for workspace and community uses.

New facilities will complement rather than compete with Chipping Barnet and Underhill town centres, provide a boost to local businesses by increasing footfall and encouraging local spend.

The development will benefit the local economy through the provision of affordable local workspace to help businesses start up and stay in the area.

The proposals provide opportunities for new workspace and community uses that would help support the local economy and would complement, rather than compete with, Chipping Barnet and New Barnet town centres. This could include providing affordable workspaces to help businesses start up and stay in the area. We anticipate that the proposals could directly provide 40 new full-time jobs and create 50 in the wider area.

Our plans will improve connections and in turn footfall between Chipping Barnet, Underhill and New Barnet and deliver new community assets that will help support and revitalise these town centres. It is estimated that the development of the site will increase spend in the area worth over £5 million per year to local shops and services. As we continue to progress our designs for the site, we want your input on what improvements or facilities you would like to see delivered, to inform the proposals.
