Mollison Way improvement scheme

Harrow council has been given money by Transport for London to make improvements to the Mollison Way shopping parades and surrounding area.

The changes we propose will help to:

• Make it easier and safer to cross Mollison Way and nearby streets
• Create a modern, less cluttered and more attractive shopping area
• Create an environment in which people feel comfortable to live, work and visit the shops
• Provide community areas with the potential for local art
• Improve personal security and reduce the fear of crime

Representatives of the local community have been working with us to establish the priorities important to local people, getting ideas and developing the proposals with the funds available.

Public consultation took place in May-June 2011 with over three-quarters of respondents commenting positively on the proposals.

The council's cabinet formally approved the scheme on 21 July 2011.  Preliminary drainage works start in August 2011, with the full construction works getting underway on 5 September 2011.  The scheme is expected to be completed by the first week in December 2011.
