The Regeneration of Haywards Heath station
Due for completion in the near future, the renovation of Haywards Heath railway station is going to be a great enhancement for the town and make it all that more alluring for London commuters who are house-hunting outside the city. The £35 million regeneration plan is going to provide an upgraded transport hub for passengers with a new multi-storey car park, a footbridge with direct access from the car park to all platforms, and even a Waitrose supermarket. The leader of Mid Sussex District Council, Gary Wall says: ‘The regeneration of the station quarter will be a boost for Haywards Heath and this investment is a real vote of confidence for the town.’
Since 2007, property prices in Haywards Heath have increased by an impressive 15.6% and this figure is expected to increase because of improvements to the town centre and railway. In the eyes of a commuter, there is no better time to invest in a property in this charming countryside town.
