Transport for London has engaged Landolt + Brown to design an expanded rail and bus interchange, establish potential for line-side residential and commercial development and to carry out detailed design of the first phase of highway and public realm improvements. Initially the practice was engaged to develop proposals for expansion of the railway facilities, combined with the design of an oversite development incorporating 200 new residential units and 3,000msq of retail space. The first phase to deliver a new bus interchange and a major new public square is fully funded and due for construction in the fourth quarter of 2013. In 2009, Landolt + Brown was commissioned by the LDA to prepare an Urban Centre Masterplan for a 12 hectare site to the north of the Hale and in 2010 the practice was asked to develop detailed designs for a new pedestrian and cycle link over the railways for Design for London.
