A ten-year plan for homes, jobs and public space in the city centre.
The Downtown Master Plan describes how the city centre should change over the next ten years. It was developed with residents, business owners and transport planners during two rounds of public consultation.
Key proposals
- 2,400 new homes on vacant and underused sites
- A car-free square in front of the station
- New street trees and shaded walking routes
The plan guides planning decisions but does not grant permission for any single project. Each one will still go through the normal application process.
