Project Updates
We are excited to be moving into the delivery Phase of Community Street. Thank you to everyone who has given input so far.
Our local communities and interested parties came up with a total of 29 project ideas across the estate. These were costed at more than double our available budget of just over £2 million. The scope of these projects has been adjusted so that we are able to include as many as possible and we will begin to deliver these in phases. Please check below for regular updates as we reveal the 13 projects to be carried out.

Strip out work will enable us to enable the quantification of the salvageable existing materials and confirmation of the scope for their refurbishment, as well as the identification of any further surveys and investigative works that may be required. This will allow for more robust and accurate measurement within the tender pricing document, reducing the risk of variations once in contract, and for the designs to be sense checked and adjusted as required subject to the conditions found.
Refurbishment and reopening of existing public WC's.
The existing WC's are being stripped out as of the
week beginning Monday 26 September.
This work will last 4 weeks running from
Monday - Friday, 8am - 5pm.
