A Greener Romford

New planting around the North Street roundabout and in its centre seeks to extend wildlife corridors back in to the centre of the town, as does new planting in the centre of the Oldchurch Road roundabout. A living "green wall" is proposed on the Ring Road as part of the new development along Angel Way. This development will also make use of renewable energy sources, measures to minimise energy use and enable a high level of recycling to reach the high level 4 of the "Code for Sustainable Homes". At Thomas England House and William Pike House on Waterloo Road Estate new double glazing, insulation, doors and repairs to the roof, among other measures, will help to improve warmth, greatly reduce energy use and reduce utility bills for residents.
