Redbridge in Bloom returns with<br />
hopes for a greener tomorrow<br />
Snaresbrook station car park closed<br />
for housing development<br />
Snaresbrook station<br />
car park was in use<br />
until 24 March<br />
Redbridge in Bloom – the borough’s annual<br />
amateur gardening competition – returns this<br />
summer with a sustainable theme. “Making<br />
small changes such as saving water, using<br />
peat-free soil, increasing wildlife-friendly<br />
habitats in our outdoor spaces and reducing<br />
surfaces that give rise to flooding can<br />
make a significant difference in achieving a<br />
sustainable, planet-friendly garden,” said a<br />
spokesperson for Vision RCL, which organises<br />
the competition. The closing date for entries is<br />
31 May. Visit wnstd.com/bloom<br />
Snaresbrook station car park closed last<br />
month ahead of the construction of two<br />
blocks of flats on part of the site. “This will<br />
allow work to deliver 74 new affordable homes<br />
to commence. Due to the complexities of the<br />
construction work, there will be limited access<br />
to Blue Badge spaces, but we will work to keep<br />
these spaces available as much as possible<br />
during construction,” said a spokesperson for<br />
Places for London, TfL’s commercial property<br />
company. A smaller car park with 22 spaces is<br />
expected to reopen in spring 2026.<br />
