The Blackhorse Lane area has great potential for improvement. It has a unique location right on the edge of the Lea Valley Park, a strong small business base and a young population. Blackhorse Road Station also offers good rail and tube connections. By making the most of these assets Blackhorse Lane will become a thriving, more attractive place for both residents and businesses.
The Blackhorse Lane area is a key regeneration site for the borough, with the potential to provide over 2,000 new homes and 1,000 new jobs over the next ten years as part of the comprehensive regeneration of the local area including new parks, roads, schools and community facilities.
