Hounslow Council is discussing the final operational arrangements for the Heston Farm Estate playground, including a timed lighting system.

Hounslow Council is currently discussing the final operational arrangements for the Heston Farm Estate playground, with a focus on lighting. The Heston and Cranford Area Forum meeting heard in September 2026 that new lighting is intended to operate on a timer system, switching off between 8 pm and 9 pm. The council's housing asset management team is leading the project, which is on track for completion by April 2027.

A significant portion of the £300,000 funding has been allocated to the Heston Farm Estate playground improvements. The council's housing asset management team has prior experience in delivering similar playground enhancements across the borough.
