3 GOLDEN MILE Stakeholder Workshop Dec 10th Format The first of two Stakeholder Workshops was held from 11am to 2pm on 10th December 2013 at Paragon House, University of West London, Boston Manor Road, Brentford. The purpose of this workshop was to inform the development of a Vision and Illustrative Masterplan for the Golden Mile in Hounslow currently being prepared by Urban Initiatives Studio. The workshop was facilitated by Urban Initiatives Studio and comprised of a presentation of initial ideas, prompting a lively debate followed by a more informal discussion allowing attendees to contribute their thoughts, concerns and opportunities for the area.

4 GOLDEN MILE Stakeholder Workshop Feedback. The workshop was well attended and raised many important points to be considered through the course of this project including: The need for better public transport provision and/or links to existing stations to unlock the potential of the Golden Mile; A concern about traffic generation and the existing congestion on the network; The need for improved amenities within the area for employees; Providing stronger links to existing facilities within Brentford; Providing a mix of uses within the corridor to diversify the offer; How any future change would impact existing businesses; Strong leadership from the council is required. On the whole there was broad support and enthusiasm for the ideas and direction currently being pursued by UIs and the LBB.
