Central Winchester Regeneration SPD Drop-in Exhibition

Winchester residents, businesses and visitors were invited to find out more about the central Winchester regeneration plans, and give their initial feedback, at a drop-in event at Guildhall Winchester on Tuesday 14 November 2017 between 4pm and 8pm.

JTP architects and masterplanners and Council officers were on hand to give more information about the content of the Supplementary Planning Document (SPD). People also had the chance to give their initial feedback ahead of the launch of the formal consultation on Monday 11 December 2017.

“

I’m determined we don’t lose the fantastic involvement we’ve had from the public, businesses and visitors throughout the development of the SPD and I don’t want to wait until the start of the formal, legal planning process to hear what they think.The Central Winchester Regeneration project is all about creating a city centre which delivers for residents, business, the local economy and visitors. I’m excited to see the vision unfold as we prepare to finalise the SPD for the benefit of the local community.

Cllr Caroline Horrill, Leader of Winchester City Council

Highlights from the various sections of the draft SPD were displayed on exhibition panels as well as copies of the draft SPD and consultation questions being available.

There’s a lot of detail in the SPD and this ‘drop-in’ will give people the chance to talk through the plan with us and the Council and give some initial feedback before they respond to the formal consultation.

Marcus Adams, JTP’s Managing Partner

The initial draft SPD is available on the Council’s website and hard copies can also be collected from the City Council’s reception in Colebrook Street which is open Monday to Thursday 8.30am until 5.00pm and Friday 8.30am until 4.30pm. People could also give their views via an online survey.

Comments could be made prior to 11 December if people preferred to do that and all comments must have been received by 12 noon on Monday 5 February 2018.
