Wimbledon Tennis Centre
The Wimbledon Tennis Centre in London will expand the facility with an underground stormwater treatment capture system under a green roof.
“This means delivering world-class facilities as well as setting the highest possible standards for the environmental, social, economic, and community benefits we will unlock.
“Throughout the duration of the process, we have been committed to active and open engagement with the community, local stakeholders and industry experts.
“We are grateful for the support received from the London Wildlife Trust, Historic England and The Gardens Trust, among many other organisations, who have endorsed the project and its contribution to the community and local environment, but we remain in close contact with all parties as our planning application approaches a decision later this year.”
The planned maintenance building proved a lightning rod for critics, but the AELTC have turned things on their head as they plan to build the structure largely underground with a ‘green roof’ blending into the surrounding park.
