Summary of Project

This project will see the Council bring forward a flagship new landmark development in the town centre – Marketfield Way (MFW), which will be a ‘game changer’ for Redhill. 

MFW represents a significant opportunity to bring about the comprehensive redevelopment of a large and underutilised prominent town centre site. The MFW scheme which has reserved matters planning consent will provide 150 new residential flats, a multi-screen cinema, high quality new ground and first floor commercial floor space, on site car parking and major public realm improvements.

LEP funding is contributing funding towards the enabling works that are required to unlock the site, ready for a start on site in 2020.
