Stage 2 - Directions and Options

The Directions and Options stage built on the issues and aspirations that had been identified by the community in the previous stage, and turned these into recommendations that would directly shape the project.

A Project Action Team (PAT) of about 20 New Town community members considered the information gathered in the previous stage. This was an intensive process which took place over 4 facilitated workshops (and extra reading at home) where the team engaged with a wide range of background inputs and worked together to define the project's objectives. Options were evaluated and the end result was a report of 30 recommendations presented to Council Aldermen.

The PAT's recommendations will form the basis for the draft Streetscape Plan. This will be a concept plan developed over summer and presented to the community for consultation in March 2018.
