Baron Court, Mitcham
Improving the space at Baron Court We are carrying out improvement works at Baron Court, Mitcham, to make better use of the existing garage area, improve parking provision and bring the Multi-Use Gym Area (MUGA) back into use. The existing garages are currently underused, and the space can be put to better use for our residents. The garages will be removed and replaced with additional parking spaces. Residents who currently use the garages will be offered alternative garage provision nearby. The project will also improve the MUGA and its surrounding area, creating a more attractive and usable community space.
What are the works?
The project includes:
- Demolition and removal of garages numbered 12–36.
- Creation of new parking spaces in the area currently occupied by the garages.
- Alternative garage provision nearby for existing garage users.
- New lighting to the parking area, subject to UKPN requirements.
- Review and improvement of the boundary wall behind the garages where required.
- Marking out new parking spaces towards the entrance to Barons Court.
- Re-marking the yellow hatched area in front of the power station.
- Resurfacing the MUGA.
- Replacement of the MUGA fencing.
- Removal of the existing seating area and improvements where required.
Improving the MUGA
The MUGA is currently fenced off and unavailable for use. Resurfacing and improvements to the fencing will allow the facility to be brought back into use.
We are also working with our Social Value team to explore opportunities for the space once it reopens, including activities that could support residents' health, wellbeing and community engagement.
We will share more information about these opportunities as the project develops.
What does this mean for residents?
During the works there may also be temporary changes to parking, access and the use of the MUGA. We will provide residents with information about these arrangements before work starts.
Current progress
The project is currently progressing through the design and preparation stage.
- The UKPN network survey has been completed.
- We are awaiting the detailed design from United Infrastructure.
- We are working with our Social Value team on opportunities for the MUGA.
- Resident consultation is planned to begin in early September 2026.
