5 Photo credit: U+I CGI images REGENERATION AND INVESTMENT IN SLOUGH Slough has benefited greatly in recent years with a 1 billion regeneration to improve the town centre including a new commercial district with an expansive retail and leisure space. The outlook is positive with the arrival of Crossrail in 2019, the potential (WRAtH) Western Rail Access to Heathrow, Pinewood Studios expansion, and the proposed third runway at Heathrow Airport. Crossrail will not only help improve Slough s connectivity to Central London with four trains every hour from December 2019, but it has created thousands of jobs and the town has also experienced, between May 2010 and 2016, the biggest effect on house prices of Crossrail stations outside of greater London with an average house price increase in Slough of 60%. The potential WRAtH will create up to 6,000 new jobs in the town and over 800 million of UK and regional economic benefit. The new line would dramatically cut the travel time between Slough and Heathrow from 41 minutes down to just 6 Minutes and it is also estimated that it will cut the number of car journeys taken by close to one million. Pinewood Studios is set to undergo an expansion with a planned 200m being spent over a 15 year period with the creation of 100,000 sq ft of new facilities and the creation of 3,100 net additional jobs. The proposed third runway at Heathrow Airport will see significant investment and will create an estimated 2,700 jobs. Work will begin on the 17.6bn project in 2021 and should be open by The Department for Transport estimates that the benefits of this to the wider economy could be as much as 61bn and could create as many as 71,000 additional local jobs over the next 14 years. The Heart of Slough is a regeneration project which will transform a key site adjacent to Slough railway and bus station. The project will focus on the creation of a commercial area covering an area of circa 3 hectares. The development will help create 4,800 permanent jobs and nearly 500 temporary jobs. The project is due to be complete around 2021.
