- A tailored approach to the design which is unique to this site to ensure it responds to the surrounding area.
- Greatly enhance local shopping choice and complement existing local shops and services.
- Attractive landscaping and acoustic reduction buffering, respecting its setting close to nearby residents.
- Free customer parking with 47 spaces, including 3 designated blue badge bays and 2 parent & child spaces.
- Green and sustainable transport facilities, including 22 new bicycle spaces and 2 dedicated electric car charging points.
- Improved cycle and pedestrian links to the nearby area, including to and from Farnborough Village.
- Access point onto Farnborough Way.
- Up to 50 new jobs, paid at above the National Living Wage, as well as employment opportunities during construction and through the supply chain.
