Acton residents to offer views on town centre improvements
Occupants of flats to rent in Acton are being given the chance to share views on new redevelopment plans for the town centre.
Ealing Council is to conduct an information and consultation event pertaining to initial proposals to transform the area on January 18th 2012, with the meeting set to be open to everyone.
Around £500,000 has been allocated to carry out the plans, which will involve the implementation of better lighting, public art, landscaping and enhanced public areas, as well as working on an art project with local schools.
The funds have been assigned to this project as a result of a successful bid by the council to London mayor Boris Johnson's Outer London Fund.
Julian Bell, the council leader, said: "I think this will make a real difference to the town, but it's important that people get involved and let us know what they think so we can give residents the improvements they want."
In October 2011, the local authority outlined plans to build a new public square in front of North Acton Tube station, the current site of an Esso service station.
