Car park construction at Ruislip Golf Course

We’re writing to let you know about some planned works that we will be carrying out at Ruislip Golf Course.

From 12 December 2022 to 28 January 2023, we will be carrying out work to construct a new car park for staff in the Ruislip Golf Course.

This has been approved by the London Borough of Hillingdon to assist with the reduction of operatives parking on local streets.

The car park will be in place throughout the duration of the construction project and will be restored as part as the golf course redesign.

We will be stripping away the topsoil and replacing it with a thin layer of stone.

These works will pause on 23 December 2022 and restart on 3 January 2023.
