Engagement session taking place on options for Elmfield Road improvements

Views are being sought on potential options for public realm improvements on Elmfield Road in Bromley Town Centre, with an engagement session taking place on Thursday 19 March.

Residents and local businesses are invited to attend the engagement session at Devonshire House on Elmfield Road between 3pm and 7pm on 19 March and provide feedback about their experiences of Elmfield Road to help shape emerging options for delivering public realm improvements. Elmfield Road runs in parallel to Bromley High Street connecting Bromley South to the entrance to the Glades, while also providing office space for a range of businesses.

Councillor Yvonne Bear, Executive Councillor for Renewal, Recreation and Housing, said: “We encourage residents and local businesses to get involved and help shapes these emerging plans to further enhance our thriving town centre. We know Elmfield Road is an important hub for the local economy and want to ensure it is a welcoming space for employees and town centre visitors. So if you have suggestions or views, then please do get in touch as we move forward with the early stages of this project.

Following the session, feedback will be considered in developing proposals, which will then be shared with residents later this year. Residents unable to attend the session can also provide feedback online.

The engagement takes place in the context of the recent news that Planning approval has been granted to reconfigure the former Debenhams unit, which is expected to attract a range of new leisure activities for residents.
