Solum Regeneration has submitted new plans in response to consultation with the Council.
The starting point of the new scheme will be a four storey Georgian style terrace running alongside the River Crane and a new riverside walk linking the station to Moormead Gardens.
The new scheme incorporates the original contemporary landmark building over a new ticket office and a new public square.
The new scheme
The scheme will transform the area around the station. It will sweep away the current unsightly buildings and bring a modern, first class station to Twickenham with better interchange facilities to other transport modes.
It will also provide new shops and restaurants arranged around a striking public plaza, making Twickenham a more attractive destination for visitors and a more convenient station for regular commuters.
The major changes that Solum has made include:
- The complete redesign of the terrace running alongside the River Crane, incorporating traditional Georgian architecture
- A reduction in the height of the buildings across the scheme
- A substantial reduction in the number of residential apartments from 165 to 115.
The scheme increases the available queuing space within the station by over 25%, which will help reduce the impact of crowds on international match days.
The proposed development will also be sustainable, delivering onsite renewable energy, and make the area feel safer.
