Council Projects

We are investing in a number of exciting projects designed to enhance community spaces, improve local facilities and create lasting benefits for residents of all ages. From restoring natural environments and improving access to the River Thames, to developing new recreational facilities and creating dedicated spaces for young people, each project reflects our commitment to making Benson an even better place to live, work and visit.

These initiatives are at different stages of development, from early planning and consultation through to active delivery on site. Throughout each project, we are working closely with residents, stakeholders and partner organisations to ensure that the outcomes meet the needs and aspirations of our community.
