Whitehill & Bordon Regeneration Project
The Louisburg North site is part of the Whitehill & Bordon regeneration project, the redevelopment of the former Bordon Garrison which will provide over 2400 new homes, a new town centre, and employment space to provide over 3000 new jobs. Through the creation of different creative ‘districts’, the Whitehill & Bordon Regeneration Company is developing the environments for a range of skilled, semi-skilled, service related, technological and creative jobs. The Louisburg development seeks to build upon the town’s heritage in engineering, whilst embracing the high-tech infrastructure being delivered around the town that will attract expanding digital and technology industries and promote social enterprise and entrepreneurship.
Several business zones have already been established around the town and as the regeneration project moves forward, more new work spaces will be delivered alongside the new homes, town centre and leisure spaces. This will include new start-up hubs, film studios, business parks and creative spaces.
