The council and Kier Property have been Highly Commended at the Partnership Awards in the 'Public Sector Promoter/Procurer of the Year' category...
This is for their joint work on the Watford Riverwell project — a £500 million regeneration transforming 70 acres of former industrial land in west Watford.
Formed in 2013, the 50:50 joint venture was one of the first of its kind, combining public sector ambition with private sector expertise to deliver new homes, health facilities, public spaces, and sustainable infrastructure.
The recognition highlights the success of this long-term partnership and its role in turning a neglected site into a thriving, vibrant community.
