New Heathrow Garden City: Early proposals and visioning

Heather Cheesbrough

Journal of Urban Regeneration and Renewal, 2016, vol. 9, issue 2, 156-171

Abstract: This paper explores the initial visioning, process and drivers behind the concept of a ‘New Heathrow Garden City’ and how the principles of the original Garden City movement can evolve to address 21st-century issues of housing need, infrastructure planning, regeneration, economic development and sustainable development. The current planning position of Heathrow airport is discussed within the context of a vacuum of sub-regional authority and how surrounding local authorities directly affected by Heathrow are joining forces to collaborate to plan and address issues of air quality, surface access transport, noise pollution and the economic impact on the surrounding population.
