Bond Riverside

A Place for employment and sustainable business

The Bond Riverside is on the edge of Newbury Town Centre and is home to light industrial, office and retail businesses. The area has historically been used as an employment area and it is West Berkshire Council’s strategy to continue support it for employment use and promote sustainable businesses within the area.

West Berkshire Council has outlined a project refresh report on the vision and plans for Bond Riverside that focuses on job creation, attracting investment to Newbury and achieving carbon neutrality.

Bond Riverside, which is currently home to around 36 businesses and 300 jobs, is set to welcome additional employers and investment as well as at least 200 new jobs.
