About Building a Better Harrow
In the opportunity of a generation, Harrow Council is leading a regeneration programme that will change the landscapes of both Harrow and Wealdstone town centres and bring forward thousands of new homes, shops, offices, schools, public spaces and green spaces, cultural and leisure facilities, transport improvements and public facilities, like health centres.
Our ambitious blueprint for Building a Better Harrow will improve lives, provide jobs, enhance conditions for business and energise Harrow as a place. Over the coming decade, it will deliver:
- 5,500 new and affordable homes in new and existing communities
- 2 new schools and as many as eight rebuilt schools and 30 expansions
- 3,000 new jobs alongside 100 apprenticeships every year
- 500 new Council homes, the first in a generation
- New public squares, better street scene and new green spaces
- Library refurbishments, a new central library and plans for new replacement libraries in Wealdstone and Roxeth
- The creation of an independent arts and culture offer and enhanced leisure facilities
- A smaller council HQ featuring more and better community uses
- Improved transport links and infrastructure in partnership with TfL
