Garages Refurbishment Programme
Improvements
We started a £10 million programme to refurbish Council owned garage blocks across the town in November 2018.
Work varies from block to block, and depends on a detailed survey of each block. The main elements that may be included in the work include:
- roofs
- garage doors
- structural repairs and alterations
- external redecoration
- door numbering
- block signage
- concrete hard standings
Timescales
The schedule for the refurbishment work could change.
- 2018/19
- Garage blocks that are more than 40% vacant
- 2019/20
- Bandley Hill, Shephall and Symonds Green

- Bedwell, Manor and Chells
- 2021/22
- Martins Wood, Pin Green, St Nicholas and Woodfield
- 2022/23
