Future Woking

LOG IN

WBC is one of the most proactive Local Authorities in the Country and has secured a number of large developments, which are critical for the vitality of the town centre. It has acted both directly and working with developers, across a range of partnership vehicles. This proactive and forward thinking approach has secured development within the town centre, which would otherwise not have occurred without WBC’s role as the catalyst.

FUTURE Woking

VICTORIA SQUARE

Woking Gateway is located adjacent to the new Victoria Square scheme and work on this development has commenced and will ultimately provide a new 5,759 m2 (62,000 sq ft) full-range Marks & Spencer store. In addition, the development will also offer new retail units, a 190 bed hotel and 391 residential units in various blocks up to 34 floors.

There are also proposals to improve traffic conditions and the road alignment in the vicinity of the site, which will vastly improve sustainable travel modes and offer far greater integration of the site with the rest of the town.

Victoria Square is due for completion in 2020 and will dramatically increase the footfall to the Gateway site, creating a vibrant and very attractive location for a niche and aspirational retail offering that can be further enhanced with sympathetic public realm improvements.
