Bio-Diversity Net Gain
Ealing Council recently approved a redevelopment project that will significantly boost biodiversity net gain in the borough.
Ealing Council's Planning Committee approved the redevelopment of Unit 3 Greenford Park on 21 October 2026. This decision will significantly boost the borough's biodiversity targets, as Bio-Diversity Net Gain is an approach to development that aims to leave the natural environment in a measurably better state than before. The project involves demolishing existing structures and building two modern warehouse buildings.
The approved plans for Greenford Park will increase industrial floorspace from 10,463 sqm to 18,043 sqm on the 2.8-hectare site. Bio-Diversity Net Gain is a requirement for new developments to deliver a minimum 10% increase in biodiversity value compared to the pre-development state.
