WiredScore Home empowers landlords and developers to improve the digital connectivity of their properties, helping them to understand at the design stage how to implement best in class digital infrastructure into developments. Its purpose is to save time, money and reduce the risk of expensive retrofits in the future as well as offering occupier’s transparency, reliable site-wide digital infrastructure, seamless connectivity and the best possible mobile connectivity right across the site.

The 245 unit built-to-rent residential scheme is currently awaiting planning permission. It will deliver two new residential buildings providing 1, 2 and 3-bedroom and duplex apartments to the south of the railway station. The scheme is being developed by Richardson and Ask Real Estate and built by Sir Robert McAlpine.
