Project Update

Wellesley is certainly gaining momentum – with more than 400 families now calling Wellesley home and a third of the development under construction, the area is now looking and feeling very different.

There are currently six developers on site, not only creating new homes, also creating community facilities and renovating iconic historic buildings. We are now in talks with developers for our next housing phase, Stanhope Lines East and it is hoped that works will start in this area next year.

Highway Works

Our works to Hospital Hill are now complete – thank you to everyone for your patience while we have carried out these works.

We are now progressing with creating a pedestrian crossing across Farnborough Road. Our Contractors; Walker Construction are carrying out works to create a pelican crossing between Pennefathers Road and the Wellesley Woodlands / sports pitches allowing pedestrians to cross safely. The works will also see a new junction created to allow vehicles to exit and enter Farnborough Road at Pennefathers Road. The works are expected to to be completed before Christmas – and during this time traffic management will be in place. The works will see traffic lights in operation along Farnborough Road between 9.30am – 3.30pm Monday to Friday. It is hoped that by having the traffic lights at this time it will reduce the disturbance to the area. There is also a signed diversion route for pedestrian and cyclist access through Knollys Road and Queens Avenue.
