The council aims to reach zero carbon by 2040. As part of the ambition, the council will work with Bouygues to meet sustainable development accreditations for the BREEAM Communities Excellent standard as well as the UN’s 17 Sustainable Development Goals.

Bouygues is already working in Westminster in delivering new homes, a sports hall and a community space as part of the council’s Church Street regeneration programme.

Last October, the Westminster Council announced formal consultation proposals to renew Ebury Bridge Estate, to build the 758 homes, new public squares and deliver several other community benefits.

The project is part of the council’s aim to build 1,850 new affordable homes in the city over the next five years.
