Watford Borough Council and Kier Property have secured the go-ahead for the next phase of the £500m Watford Riverwell project.
The proposals feature a 131-bedroom hotel, new public realm and retail space, which will compliment earlier phases approved on the site, including the new 1.5km Thomas Sawyer Way, a 1,455 space multi-storey car park, 567 homes, a Trade City commercial development, and an 80,000 sq ft Safestore storage facility.
Leigh Thomas, group managing director at Kier Property, said: “This phase will provide public amenity for residents, visitors and the wider community, supporting local economic growth while enhancing the area’s appeal.”
