New offices and homes for Maidenhead town centre

December 2019

Access & parking

The current vehicle access to the site that is shared with the multi-storey car park off Stafferton Way, will be retained and improved with the introduction of a mini roundabout.

The location of the proposed development promotes increased use of sustainable travel modes (walking, cycling and public transport) being next to the railway station, recreational/sports areas and the town centre.

Parking for both the office and residential buildings will be provided on site with a similar number of spaces to those currently provided. There will be some surface level parking as well as undercroft parking beneath the residential building.

The current footpath that runs alongside the railway embankment to the north of the site will be upgraded to create an attractive pedestrian and cycle route to the new flats and offices and onto the Stafferton Way retail park beyond.

Also, the current roadside footpath around the site along Braywick Road and Stafferton Way will be widened and upgraded to include a shared cycle way.

Landscaping and public realm

A comprehensive landscape design around the new development is being planned. This will be varied to provide outdoor amenity space for residents and office workers with pedestrian and cycle access.

Around the offices will be new tree planting and an office arrival space. A new street will be created through the site. There will also be a green open space for residential communal and private amenity spaces for the residents.
