Regeneration and renewal plans

Moorpark is one of the eight areas covered by our Housing-led Renewal and Regeneration Programme. You can see a map showing which addresses are covered by the programme below:

Map of the plans for the Moorpark area [897KB]

Moorpark is centrally located and very well connected with good access to facilities, and strong community networks in the area.

The streets covered by this area include:

• Barclay Square
• Birmingham Road
• Jessiman Square
• Knockhill Road
• Mitchell Avenue
• Paisley Road (numbers 168-170, 200-208, 214, 220-224, 236, 242 and 248-254)

It has been agreed all properties in this area be retained and improved, subject to owner agreement. This will make those homes more energy-efficient. The investment is likely to include:

• new roofs, including new roof trims, gutters and rainwater pipes, and the addition of solar panels
• external wall insulation
• new close doors, repainted closes and repairs to stair treads
• new TV aerials
• (in some cases) new windows.

There will also be improvements to outdoor and common areas such as closes, back courts, bin stores and recycling facilities.

Next steps and timeline

The estimated programme of works is as follows:

• Ongoing - work continues on development and consolidating ownership
• 2026 - work starts to improve existing properties and outdoor areas (as described above).
• 2029 - we expect all work to be complete.

Please note, as this is a long-term project, the timelines could change.

We want to work with residents on a neighbourhood plan for the area, to capture views on the issues affecting the wider area, what you would like to see changed or improved, and how we and our partners can work together to deliver on that.

If you would like to be involved please contact the team on the details below.
