News on Wick Street Design Project

Thank you to all those who attended our webinar on Wednesday 09 September. Some important questions were asked regarding heritage, accessibility and automatic bollards. Watch the recording to see how these questions were answered and to hear an update from Cllr Nicola Sinclair on the wider Town Centre Regeneration...

Thank to the 100+ people who have contributed in a variety of ways to our consultation so far. However, there are still more people we'd like to hear from. We are especially keen to hear more from young people, parents of young children, Deaf people, disabled people and others who may experience barriers to getting around the town centre safely and easily. Please add your feedback on our website by midnight on 14 September . Or, if you picked up a paper survey, please ensure it is in the post by Monday 14 September. There are also a few surveys remaining at Tesco and Coop if you'd like to pick one up this weekend.

Businesses are the heart of the High Street and will be significantly impacted by any changes proposed. To ensure that business owners continue to be included in shaping these proposals further, we are asking business owners in the town centre to complete a tailored survey by 14 September . If your business is in the design focus area (pedestrian precinct and Market Square) we are also inviting you to book a 10-minute virtual meeting slot to discuss specific concerns or questions. Slots are available 10:30-11:30 AM on Tuesday 15 September - please email Kasia Koziel to book. Please note that due to the short time limit, these virtual meetings will be limited to addressing specific questions - general feedback or comments should be shared through the survey. Please ensure that you read through the FAQs in the first instance as meeting slots are limited.
