Public Consultation

Over the past few weeks we have been undertaking a public consultation of the masterplan for Icknield Port Loop. The proposed scheme was drawn up and illustrated with exemplar images to engage people in discussion about the kinds of developments that could take place, the types of housing they prefer and canal-side activities they thought the area could sustain. Many people asked questions which were answered by members of the client and design team. Overall the feedback on the day was very positive, with the majority of people stating during discussions with the consultant team that they couldn’t wait for the improvements to start, as this would ‘lift’ the area.

The results of this consultation can be seen in the Statement of Community Involvement which will become part of a planning application.
