About the Waterways

The Waterways housing development was built between 2000 and 2006 by Berkeley Homes. It includes over 500 housholds in a variety of owner-occupied, privately rented and social, affordable housing.

Residents' interests, and the buildings and public areas, are protected and maintained by local organisations. 

Waterways Residents Association (WRA). Open to all residents in the development. Our aim is to encourage a sense of community through organising events and representing your views and concerns to the council and other bodies where it is important for your views to be heard. The WRA is a body recognised by the WMC and Greensquare and the is run by a team of volunteer residents. 

The Waterways Management Company (WMC). Represents the interests of the owners of private property who are shareholders in the Waterways Management Company.  The company directors, who are volunteer residents liaise with contractors responsible for the maintenance of the area.

Most of the time the estate will be managed to your satisfaction but sometimes you may feel the managing agents are not being as helpful as they could. In this instance please follow the complaints procedure.

Greensquare Accord (formerly OCHA) Represents the interests of those living in social, affordable and over 50s housing on the development and arranges for the upkeep of these areas.

Whether you want to pass on a compliment or make a complaint, Greensquare has its own procedures for residents to follow.

The WRA publishes a hard copy newsletter called Waterways World which can be sponsored by local businesses. Previous editions can be found below.
