Construction of the south Wokingham distributor road is now under way, with main works due to start soon and end in early 2027.
The finished road will provide access to about 1,820 new homes and supporting infrastructure, including green spaces, on land south of the railway line.
Along with the 636 homes already built at Montague Park off William Heelas Way, this will form Wokingham Borough Council’s major new community at South Wokingham.
The major new communities are set out in the Local Plan so housing and other growth needs can be met in the long term.
There are three others at North Wokingham, Shinfield Parish and the former Arborfield Garrison, all of which are progressing to completion.

Wokingham Borough Council is holding a community forum at St Sebastian’s Memorial Hall in Wokingham Without (Nine Mile Ride, RG40 3BA) on Thursday, May 15.
You’ll be able to see the latest plans for the South Wokingham area, including the road, housing, green spaces and more, and ask questions.
The event runs from 4.30pm until 7pm and it’s an informal drop-in, so there’s no need to book – just turn up on the day.
Property developers Miller, Kier and Kingacre will be attending, as will representatives from road building partners at Balfour Beatty.
The developers will be discussing the most recent and detailed proposals for South Wokingham.
