Alton renewal gets underway with new council investment across the estate

The Leader of Wandsworth Council pledged improvements to services across Roehampton's Alton estate as he got behind the wheel of the council's new plan for the area.

The Alton Renewal Plan sets out how we would like to invest in the estate, working together with residents, community organisations, businesses and local stakeholders to help this part of Wandsworth thrive.

Simon Hogg said: “This council is doing things differently and focusing on real improvements to the Alton estate after listening carefully to local views and needs which have shaped our plan. 

“This summer we have already started to act on what we heard and we’re planning major investment for the renewal of the estate over the longer term. Residents will continue to see better local facilities coming forward as part of a whole area improvement package, ahead of a local ballot on our proposal to deliver new homes. This will include building much more affordable housing so that people can choose to stay in their neighbourhood near their families and support networks.”
