I am pleased to invite you to give feedback on proposals for what Bridge Street, High Street and Union Street in Stratford-upon-Avon could look like in the future.
The proposals have been developed by Stratford-upon-Avon Town Council and Warwickshire County Council with the help of specialist urban design consultants and the Stratford Town Centre Strategic Partnership. They build on ideas originally set out in Stratford’s Neighbourhood Development Plan and on the experience of the temporary measures introduced in the town centre in response to Covid-19 in 2020 to support social distancing.
The proposals aim to improve the look and feel of the town centre, make it easier and safer for people to move around on foot or by bicycle, and encourage more people to visit and spend money in the local economy.
We would like you tell us what you think about the proposals, what you feel works and doesn’t, and how the proposals could be improved. We are still at an early stage in developing these and by taking part in this consultation you will help shape our plans and designs.
We do not have funding to deliver the proposals in full but carrying out this consultation will put us in a better position to bid to any new funding opportunities. A funding submission to the Government’s Levelling Up Fund in summer 2021 was unsuccessful, but there may be future opportunities to bid to the Levelling Up Fund or other sources of funding.
You can take part in the consultation by following the link below to the online survey where you will also find further information about the proposals.
Alternatively, you can feedback in the following ways:
- If you would like a paper copy of the survey, need it in an alternative format or need help to complete it please contact us by phone on 01926 412395 or by email: contactcommunitiesgrp@warwickshire.gov.uk
- You can also send your feedback directly to Warwickshire County Council by emailing tpu@warwickshire.gov.uk or in writing to Stratford Town Centre Consultation, Warwickshire County Council, Transport Planning, Shire Hall, Warwick, CV34 4RL
We are also running some face to face and online information events where you can find out more about the proposals and ask any questions you may have. Details of the events are provided below.
