The £400m Watford Riverwell scheme was formerly known as the Health Campus project, the scheme led by Watford Borough Council and Kier Property will transform 29 acres of land near Watford General Hospital over a 15 to 20 year period, providing 500 homes across two estates, as well as a 250 bed ‘care community’, a new primary school and for the hospital to expand into.
Work on Trade City began in August 2016 and Kier’s first tenant at the site is Screwfix. Many of the remaining 11 units are either already let of under offer, making the commercial scheme a resounding success for all parties involved.
