Green Space

Greening west-Watford

A key commitment of the Watford Health Campus is to increase the overall green spaces available to the community. This is being achieved by several methods, such as:

• Retaining and improving existing working allotment gardens
• Creating significant landscaped public open spaces
• Enhancing access to existing and newly created green open spaces
• Enhancing and creating access to waterside walks and space
• Enhancing and creating new habitats to encourage bio-diversity

With a large proportion of the site currently unattractive brownfield land, the landscaping of new parkland and a native tree planting initiative will create the accessible urban green space the area craves for, brining new flora and fauna to the area.

Whilst we recognise the new link road to the hospital will cross existing green space, the Watford Health campus will increase the overall provision of open green areas within the area.
