I new construction alongside the by pass behind Tesco appears to be and edition to cement works in time for the building of homes at Southall Gas works. I will take a look at the planning portal for Hillingdon, the answer will be there!

New flats apparently, this place is such a magnet for Hipsters, Techies, Creatives, Students and Young Professionals who want to be part of it's burgeoning Craft Beer fuelled social scene that any patch of undeveloped land is fair game now..... :|

These days when they build high rise they have to put deep concrete piles in for secure footings. When they were constructing Yeading Tesco they spent ages pile driving because that used to be soft marshland at one point I think.

Fracking is 300m deep AFAIK and those machines by Hayes station are just the normal depth drills.

Flats, it makes sense, first the council tidy up Hayes Town move all the drug dealers & winos out the area to a place near you, and then build luxury flats next to the station just in time for Crossrail.

As someone who undertakes the dubious pleasure of walking through Hayes to get to and from the station, where would all the scroates and herberts go exactly ? Hayes is the borough's designated place for them similar to the way North African youths are dumped on the fringes of Paris.

High Point Village is about 50% privately owned with internally gated residents who have their own gated walkway down to the station, the rest of it's a dosshouse with rags and old towels for curtains, expect the same with the other new builds.

Things are a changing Hayes Town has Dispersal Zones move the drug dealers & drinkers out of centre, into the residential areas, some going just south of the station, reading the local paper proves this, others moved north, not too far, no further than the A 40. :?:
One cannot fail to see vast number of homes of multiply occupancy just like the giant hogwood, spreading to all the residential roads in our area, by allowing & encouraging this to happen, it leaves leave Hayes Town free, thus allowing luxury flats to be built, why is Hayes & Harlington Station due for vast revamp soon.

You know it makes sense & who is going to object, when you di its too late

PS. Think maybe should more to Heavy Chat now :lol:

HMO need to be approved by planning department, however that not the only problem. Take a look at google maps and search the gardens for 'gyms' being built. Hillingdon should have some of the most athletic and strong people in the country.....alas these building are simply homes for relatives or illegal immigrants. Hayes isn't changing, it already has, some 20yrs ago.
