occupancy rates and footfall
Redbridge Council is launching a town centre health check to assess occupancy rates and footfall across its high streets.
Redbridge Council is launching a town centre health check to assess occupancy rates and footfall, which measure commercial activity and visitor numbers, across its high streets. This initiative, proposed by Urban development and regeneration Councillor Stephen Adams, was decided by the Regeneration and Economic Development Committee in July 2026.
Officers are developing an economic growth dashboard to provide data on these key performance indicators for nine district town centres. The dashboard will highlight how these centres are performing, including footfall and spend data, and will inform the economic growth strategy. No specific upcoming meetings or further decisions regarding the health check or dashboard development are currently scheduled in the supplied material.
