East Hampshire District Council appointed Feria Urbanism to provide urban design advice for one of the largest and most complex regeneration schemes in the country.

Whitehill & Bordon in Hampshire is being transformed into a prosperous and sustainable green town following the relocation of the Army’s Defence School of Electronic and Mechanical Engineering to Wiltshire, which released approximately 100 hectares of land. The regeneration scheme aims to deliver 3,350 new homes, 5,500 new jobs, a vibrant new town centre, new schools, and the protection and enhancement of 150 hectares of natural environment.

We were appointed by the council in early 2015 to advise on urban design as the detailed planning and design work progressed. The team also participated in a two-day design workshop in September 2015, where architectural teams developed and refined ideas for the new town centre
