Walkways

Phase 2 survey results coming soon! 

As part of the latest co-design engagement, Testerton, Hurstway and Barandon residents voted on elements of the refurbishment including: window design and colour, block design and colour scheme, balcony flooring and new front doors.

54% of Walkway residents have engaged in the co-design so far, and we can reveal that the winning block colour scheme is... white, cream and grey façade! 

The image gives residents an idea of what the building may look like when the energy efficient refurbishment has taken place.

Coming soon we will be revealing the chosen options for all the other design elements.

Walkways Roof Improvements Webinar

On Monday 16 May, Lancaster West Neighbourhood Team held an online meeting with residents of Barandon Walk, Testerton Walk and Hurstway Walk on the Lancaster West Estate to discuss the roof improvement works for their blocks. Architects for the Walkways Karacusevic Carson Architects (KCA) were able to present the designs for the roofs and explain the impact this will have on the buildings and homes, and residents had the chance to ask questions.

Your block is entering phase 2 of the refurbishment co-design

To begin the second phase of the refurbishment co-design, we’re inviting all Walkways residents to a webinar and drop-in event about the replacement and upgrade of Barandon Walk, Testerton Walk and Hurstway Walk roofs.

The improvement works will involve installation of new warm-deck energy efficient roofs, new double-glazed atrium rooflights with integrated Automatically Opening Vents (AOVs) to improve ventilation and weather proofing of communal areas, installation of new terrace screens and pergolas, new roof handrails, futureproofing of roof drainage, and installation of steelwork for potential installation of solar PVs.
