Waltham Cross, located on the southern edge of Hertfordshire in the Borough of Broxbourne, near junction 25 of the M25, is known for its historical Eleanor Cross monument and its vibrant street market held in the High Street on Wednesdays and Fridays. The current pedestrian zone was originally implemented over 30 years ago, with the southern section recently refreshed by our team in 2019—a project that has been highly praised for its quality and impact.
The newly awarded scheme, secured through the Procure Partnerships framework, will focus on three distinct areas:
• High Street Paving Upgrade: We will upgrade the paving on the High Street, which will allow for the reintroduction of a single lane of carriageway, enhancing both accessibility and functionality of this key area.

• Stanhope Way/Monarchs Way Junction Remodelling: This will involve the remodelling of the junction, including the installation of two new pedestrian crossing points and the infilling of the existing subway. These improvements will enhance pedestrian safety and traffic flow and reduce anti-social behaviour.
• Eleanor Cross Road Enhancements: We will be carrying out new paving and surfacing works on Eleanor Cross Road, further contributing to the overall aesthetic and practical upgrade of the town.
