High Lane Estate Redevelopment Project
Ealing Council is progressing the High Lane Estate redevelopment by approving demolition of existing buildings for new homes.
Ealing Council approved the tendering of a contract to demolish Colne, Dee, and Humber Courts on the High Lane Estate in Hanwell in July 2025. This decision, made during a Cabinet meeting, also included the demolition of the High Lane Community Centre, which the council noted was closed and no longer fit for purpose or safe.
The demolition is part of a large-scale redevelopment project aimed at addressing the borough's housing needs. A report to the Cabinet detailed the estimated cost of the demolition contract within a confidential appendix, with funding to come from approved capital budgets.
