Residents Urged For Views To Revitalise Camborne Town Centre

Construction News Image

Residents are being urged to put forward their views on improvements to help revitalise Camborne town centre, Cornwall.

With specific funding available to enhance streets and public spaces, Cornwall Council and the Camborne Town Deal Board are hosting a drop in exhibition on Tuesday 01 November between 15.00 and 20.00 at Camborne Wesley Centre on Chapel Street.

The team are looking for views on developing public spaces, how people currently travel around the town centre and ways to celebrate Camborne’s heritage.

The plans form part of the Camborne Town Deal Board's vision to regenerate the heart of Camborne and transform it into a visually appealing, accessible place to live, work, shop and visit.

Anyone unable to attend the exhibition will also be able to have their say by filling in a questionnaire available online or a paper version available at Dolcoath Council Office reception in Camborne.

Val Dalley, Camborne Town Deal Board chair, said: "This is a public consultation and everyone’s opinion counts. We have been talking to traders and other interested parties, but we also want to hear from local residents before developing the project’s design and business case.

"Our Town Deal funding represents a once-in-a-generation opportunity to upgrade all that Camborne has to offer. We want as many people to have their say as possible."

The project represents a second tranche of projects that focus on the town centre. The first, which includes seven of Camborne Town Deal's projects, have already received Government approval and initial funding. Work is expected to get underway on these in the next couple of months.
