Brent Cross Cricklewood Regeneration
Brent Cross Cricklewood Planning Application
15 April 2008 - 30 May 2008
Application Reference: C17559/08
The Brent Cross Cricklewood (BXC) Development Partners submitted an outline planning application to the Council on 26 March 2008 for the comprehensive regeneration of the Brent Cross Cricklewood Area. The site area extends to 151 hectares and includes the Brent Cross Shopping Centre to the north, the A41 and Brent Cross London Underground station to the east, Cricklewood Lane to the south and the A5 to the west.
This is an ambitious and complex regeneration scheme which, if approved, will be developed over the next twenty years.
The scheme is expected to generate around 7,500 homes and a substantial number of jobs and is to be developed around a new town centre to extend north and south of the North Circular Road. The scheme will include the delivery of the appropriate amount of physical and social infrastructure.
The proposals include the reprovision of the Clitterhouse, Whitefield and Mapledown schools, a new Brent Cross Bus Station and a new railway station to serve the new commercial district. The scheme is intended to be as 'green' as possible and consideration is being given, by the applicants, to the vacuum collection of waste and the generation of energy from waste.
The planning application documents submitted so far can be viewed on the website: www.brentcrosscricklewood.com.

The Council is embarking on a consultation programme for the documents received so far with local residents and businesses.
