Phase 1: Understanding your neighbourhood and establishing a vision (map)

Open for comments from Friday 4 August to Sunday 24 September.

Phase 1 of the design code project is focussed on understanding the neighbourhood.

As well as our own research we are using online mapping for local people to complete, alongside an in-person event taking place on Wednesday 27 September at Meadows Community Centre.

Please use our interactive map to help us understand your experience living in and working in Arbury, King’s Hedges and West Chesterton.

Your responses will help form the basis of the Design Code so the more information, the better.

We would love to hear your comments on:

  • walking and cycling
  • playgrounds and parks
  • car parking
  • cycle use and storage
  • community facilities
  • gaps and underused places
  • safety
  • public transport
  • neighbourhood character
  • anything else!
