Two buildings on Old Kent Road will also be retained as part of the scheme, which will dramatically improve the streetscape of Old Kent Road, with active frontage accessible for local businesses.
The Old Kent Road scheme will be a development built with the community at its centre, creating much public realm to include a park as the green heart of the scheme. Avanton’s Old Kent Road development will prioritise pedestrians, with only car parking for disabled bays provided, thanks to an innovative car club and integrated Enterprise Rent-A-Car scheme. The development will also include cycle storage and a social hub for repair and maintenance.
