Ballot on Alton regeneration plans
Posted: 22/09/2025
Transforming the estate for everyone
Simon Hogg, Leader of Wandsworth Council said: “Our updated plans for the Alton are addressing the need for investment to create high-quality, well-maintained homes and facilities for generations to come. We’ve listened to what people have said and we’re confident that this next phase of the Alton Renewal Plan shows we’re committed to serving the real needs of residents.
“We now ask residents to review these new masterplan proposals and cast their vote – each and every vote counts and the decision will determine how we move forward with transforming the estate for everyone."
Key highlights of the new proposals include:
- Increased affordable homes: A core pillar of the revised plan is a substantial increase in genuinely affordable homes, addressing the critical housing needs of the borough and ensuring more Alton residents can remain within their community.
- Enhanced community facilities: The masterplan outlines improved and expanded community facilities, designed to foster an even stronger sense of belonging and provide vital resources for all residents, from new youth spaces to accessible community hubs.
- Modern replacement shopping parade: A brand-new shopping parade is proposed, offering modern retail spaces that will bring convenience and vibrancy back to the heart of the estate.
The resident ballot provides residents with the direct opportunity to shape the future of their homes and neighbourhood and will be open between 22 September and 16 October.
