Council invites tenders for town centre Masterplan
Cross-party rejuvenation group formally launched
Proposals for the regeneration of Maidenhead town centre have taken three significant steps forward this week.
As the Royal Borough began a tendering process for urban designers to draw up a Masterplan for Maidenhead, one of the world’s largest property companies, ING Real Estate, announced it is proposing to invest more than £150m in a retail-led development linking the town centre to the station.
“This is very exciting news,” said council leader David Burbage. “We are well on the way to bringing in experts to assist in re-designing a town centre for the future and we are delighted to be in discussions at this early stage with a respected developer for one of the key areas of the town.”

Your chance to share your priorities with the police and local businesses from the town centre.
The new style of community policing was introduced to businesses at a launch meeting in the Desborough Suite in Maidenhead Town Hall on Tuesday 18 September, starting at 7pm.
Insp Mark Millward said: “At the launch, we asked local businesses to set their three main policing priorities for the next six months. It is vital that as many local businesses as possible are represented, so that the priorities reflect the concerns of all.
“Police officers, police staff, partner agencies and the community, through representatives on a Neighbourhood Action Group, will work together to tackle the issues that are most important to the community.
“The meeting was a real opportunity for local people to drop in and tell us what matters to them. I hope to see as many people there as possible.”
