Online community forums for TVU site set for Tuesday 29th September

Muse Developments, who are bringing forward plans to regenerate Slough’s former Thames Valley University (TVU) site also known as North West Quadrant, has announced it will be hosting two online community forums as part of the community consultation on the emerging plans for the site.

The community forums will take place on:

• Morning session: 10am – 11am, Tuesday 29th September 2020
• Evening session: 7pm – 8pm, Tuesday 29th September 2020

Residents can register for either the morning or evening slot via the project website – https://northwestquadrant.commonplace.is/

The plans for the North West Quadrant site, being brought forward by Muse Developments in partnership with Slough Urban Renewal and Slough Borough Council, will deliver a comprehensive regeneration of the area. They form a key part of the Council’s Heart of Slough regeneration project and will deliver much needed housing, offices and retail together with green spaces.

The online community forums are part of a wider consultation regarding proposals to bring the site back into use. So far, hundreds of residents have contributed ideas and thoughts through the project website.

Chris Scott, Development Director at Muse Developments, said: “We’re delighted with the ideas and feedback that we’ve already received from the local community. The responses are helping to shape our plans for this key site in Slough town centre. It is clear that people care about this site and want to see it brought back into use.”

“In addition to a considerable number of new homes, our plans include shops, bars, restaurants and new workplaces, helping to create jobs and supporting the local economy. We will also deliver new community facilities and public spaces as part of a wide package of measures to provide significant social value for local residents.”

James Swindlehurst, Leader of Slough Borough Council, said: “The North West Quadrant is a vital part of the wider regeneration taking place within the
Heart of Slough. Muse has an amazing track record of place making – creating spaces that are unique, popular and high quality.”

“The design process is at an early stage and I would urge residents to have their say and get involved in the consultation, visit the project website and join the upcoming online community forum. This is an exciting opportunity for Slough and we look forward to working with Muse throughout this project.”
