The London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham has approved the Masterplan proposals for Imperial West, the new campus located on the former BBC site on Wood Lane. The planning permission will allow the College to bring together research and teaching facilities, postgraduate accommodation, commercial and residential space, and new retail and leisure services on the 88,000 sq m site. The application also included plans for a 20,000 sq m business incubator, a publicly accessible square and improved pedestrian and cycle routes.
Proposals for how the College might best take advantage of the opportunities presented by Imperial West will be developed over the coming months.
