LITTLE ILFORD BRIGHTER ALLEYWAYS
The Project aims to deliver enhancements to up to four alleyways across Little Ilford to ensure safer, cleaner and brightened-up connections for local residents, businesses and cyclists. The proposed improvements aim to encourage more active use via wayfinding connections to the centre of Little Ilford including Jack Cornwell Street, Warrior Square, the playground, and shops.
The project aims to address recommendations in Newham High Streets Report: ‘Brighter Alleyways’, ‘Warrior Square Streets’ and ‘Cemetery Entrance’.
The project will be developed through a community co-design process and is likely to include:
· Creative painting and other graphical and colourful enhancements to the alleyway walls
· Lighting
· Wayfinding
· Play streets
· De-paving and urban greening
· Floor markings and other enhancements
· CCTV and other safety features
Your opinion on the types of improvements is important. Do you have any further ideas or want to comment on the proposed improvement types above, please see the timeline at the bottom of the page for details on how to share your thoughts at each project stage.
Phases
Ideas for the improvements alleyways
The design team will hold workshops with various stakeholder groups such as wider community including local residents and businesses, local community and art organisations, schools etc. to consider project priorities and co-design the concept design options.
The first in-person engagement event was held on Thursday 16 March, to contribute and tell us what type of improvements you want to see prioritised for the identified alleyways across Little Ilford. Based on the ideas and local priorities, the initial concept design will be developed and the Design Team will produce a series of concept images to share during the concept options consultation.
