Camberley town centre has received a major boost with £1,480,300 awarded by HM Government through the Brownfield Land Release Fund (BLRF2), part of the One Public Estate Programme.
This funding will support new housing development on the London Road site, located next to the A30 in the heart of Camberley.
The grant will be used to demolish derelict buildings on the site and safely remove asbestos from the former Allders building, clearing the way for future development.
