Consultation Website
The Site
Site A is located to the west and north west of the railway and includes the main entrance to the station at Princess Way, providing the ticket hall, supporting retail spaces and external cycle and passenger car parking areas. Immediately west of the Site A is Redhill town centre with its huge range of amenities, including the Harlequin Theatre, Belfry shopping centre, and the recently completed Rise development at Marketfield Way featuring a new six screen cinema, shops and restaurants as well as 153 apartments.
Site B is located to the east of the railway, with access off Redstone Hill. The site provides a second smaller entrance to the station, a variety of disused former rail buildings, and some further station surface car parking areas.
The combined sites present the opportunity to make a significant contribution to the ongoing regeneration of Redhill town centre, providing improved facilities for rail passengers and visitors to Redhill, new highly sustainable homes, retail spaces and public realm improvements.
Planning permission was previously granted for Site A and B in January 2014, comprising a new station facility, supported by new homes and a new food retail store. Unfortunately changes in the food retail market meant those proposals could not be delivered. Following extensive community consultation and consideration of all the feedback we received, Solum have now submitted fresh plans to transform Redhill Station.
