43 THE AREA AROUND ENFIELD TOWN STATION
In the Enfield Town Station Place Shaping Priority Area (see boundary in Map.9.7), the objectives will be to create:
- An integrated development incorporating land around Enfield Town station including land around Tesco, Wenlock House, New River House (formerly known as Bovril House), Genotin Road car park and potentially St Anne’s School;
- A high quality new urban environment and gateway to the town, which complements its historic core;
- A retail-led mixed use development, accommodating approximately 10,000sqm of retail floorspace, up to 500 new homes, community uses and health care, and a new primary school, if required;
- An improved public transport interchange, potentially incorporating a relocated bus station from Little Park Gardens. The relocation of the railway station further down the tracks, subject to feasibility work, will be considered;
- Improved pedestrian accessibility to the town centre; and
- Better traffic management around the station area, potentially providing a new link road between Southbury Road and London Road.
