The scheme will also incorporate a new park for everyone to enjoy, along the Silk Stream, retaining the existing trees and planting new ones. The area will benefit from improved pedestrian and cycle links though the site, connecting Burnt Oak to Edgware.

Linkcity first sought residents views on their initial proposals last autumn and you can find out more about how they used your feedback in the first phase of engagement.

Linkcity would now like your final thoughts on their proposals for redeveloping the site that have been enhanced based on your feedback during the first phase of engagement.

    We asked

    We asked for your views on our updated proposals for Watling Avenue Car park, Burnt Oak Library and 41 Barnfield Road.

    The consultation website was updated with the latest design material and a dedicated feedback form for respondents to comment on the material. 1,300 leaflets were posted by first class Royal Mail to local addresses to advertise the consultation and in person events.

    You said

    Two separate public drop-in events were held at Burnt Oak Library (Saturday 20th July and Friday 26th July). The team engaged with over 40 local people at the two events, discussing their experiences of living in Barnet and thoughts around the updated design proposals. The designs and proposals were shown on a series of banners, and paper surveys were available for people to provide feedback. The design team and client group attended the sessions to answer questions.

    Following the event on Friday 26th July, the team stood outside Burnt Oak tube station during rush hour 5.15pm – 7pm, handing out over 60 additional leaflets that signposted to the project website and shared more information on the scheme.

    An additional 55 responses were received during the Stage 2 consultation and the results can be read on the dedicated consultation website for the project here: https://wcp-consultation.co.uk/
