News on Watford

It's the last day to let us know how you would like the town centre to evolve and grow in the future, with feedback wanted on the draft proposals such as greener landscaping and improved public spaces.

Following the public engagement last year, where hundreds of residents and key groups were asked to share their views and ideas, a draft design framework has now been created for the town centre for people to comment on. This includes ideas such as more focus on pedestrians, better accessibility, more independent retailers and sustainable modes of transport.

All residents will be encouraged to go online to the engagement platform at watfordtowncentre.commonplace.is and express their views on the proposals. This will include a map with photo montages of existing situation at six key locations, together with visuals of potential interventions, where people can provide feedback.
