Winchester Cabinet gives go-ahead for Winchester City Centre Regeneration plan to go to formal consultation

CWR Broadway and Guildhall

The Central Winchester Regeneration area’s draft Supplementary Planning document (SPD) was approved for formal consultation by Winchester City Council’s Cabinet at its meeting yesterday (6 December).

The formal consultation will be launched at a public exhibition in the Guildhall’s Wintonian Room on 11 December. The master planners and architects behind the new vision for Central Winchester’s regeneration (JTP) and Council officers will be on hand to give more information about the content of the Supplementary Planning Document (SPD) at the launch exhibition. Members of the public are invited to ‘drop in’ to the exhibition anytime between 2pm and 9pm on 11 December.

Cabinet approval follows extensive work by the Central Winchester Regeneration Informal Policy Group over the last year and scrutiny by the Overview and Scrutiny Committee last week (27 November).

Cllr Caroline Horrill, Council Leader and Chair of the Informal Policy Group said:

I’m thrilled that we are now in a position to formally consult on the planning guidance framework. There has been significant engagement already and so I’m hopeful that residents share my excitement about our partnership work becoming a reality to create a great new vibrant centre for our city.

I would like to thank my fellow IPG [Informal Policy Group] members, officers and JTP for their hard work and commitment to making this as inclusive as possible.

A week-long touring exhibition has been planned for 10 – 15 January 2018 which will enable people to see the latest materials and meet JTP and Council staff in a range of locations including Alresford, Bishops Waltham and Winchester. The exhibition display will also be available to view in The Brooks Shopping Centre from 12 December until 8 January.
