Improvements to public space around Willesden Junction station
OPDC is bringing forward a series of local improvement projects, supported by the Mayor of London’s Good Growth Fund, to make the spaces and places in Old Oak more welcoming, accessible and enjoyable for the community.
As part of this work, we’re improving the public space in and around Willesden Junction station with new planting, community amenities and public art.
Construction will take place from 21 March 2022 and is due to be complete in August 2022.
To prepare our plans we consulted closely with the community and station users though conducting surveys at the station and holding drop-in and online consultation events.
We’re now pleased to be on site to deliver these exciting improvements for local people to enjoy.
The improvements at Willesden Junction Station include
- trees, flowers and green space to make the area more welcoming
- benches and planting to create a more comfortable space for people waiting for buses
- new public artwork to reflect the character of the local area and make clear routes through the station
- clearer signage towards the station
- a community notice board
- improvements to existing street furniture to tidy up the area
Key construction information
- construction is taking place between March and August 2022
