Waterlooville Regeneration

There is real progress starting to be seen in the regeneration of Waterlooville Town Centre, with the opening of several new businesses, including “The Exchange”.

Work on Wellington Way is going a pace with Block 1 scheduled to be completed in April, Block 2 completed June, and the project fully completed by the end of the year. The three blocks are to be named Copenhagen House (after the Duke of Wellington’s horse), Catherine House (after the Duke’s wife), and Arthur House (his first name).

With the involvement of The Royal Armouries, very soon we will see refurbishment of the Waterlooville Cannon – cleaning, restoration and new paint.

The Waterlooville Business Association has been reformed, and as well as supporting Christmas events the Association hopes to re-launch Waterlooville in Bloom, introduce Wellington the Bear, launch a discount system between shops, launch Waterlooville branding and merchandise, and improve signage. Behind the scenes are discussions about expanding the current Friday market.

The “Pop-Up Shop” had its first tenants who were “Vintage Trainers”. This shop gives traders the opportunity to try out Waterlooville as a business opportunity before committing long term.

Following a recent public consultation for the next stages of the Waterlooville Town Centre Masterplan, people have voted on what they would like to see improved in the public space of the town centre. The improvements will aim to make the town centre a more attractive place to visit, shop and enjoy for residents and visitors, with £800,000 of investment from Havant Borough Council including £150,000 from CIL funding (Community Infrastructure Levy).
