West London lock revamp plans approved
ISIS Waterside Regeneration has been given the green light to proceed with its regeneration plans for Brentford Lock West, a 6.4 hectare (15.8-acre) development in west London.
The mixed-use project will surround the Grand Union Canal and will include an overhaul of the public realm, including communal courtyards and a residential element. Hounslow Council approved the proposals, which will see derelict buildings and vacant land transformed into a new waterside community centred on the historic canal.
Meanwhile, British Waterways has confirmed that the Kennet and Avon Canal is now to be classified as a National Cruiseway, following a consultation by the government. The 87-mile (140km)-long waterway, which stretches between Newbury and Bath, has been upgraded from 'remainder' status - one step above 'derelict'.
