A group of local residents are drafting a neighbourhood plan for Handbridge.
A plan area and Handbridge Neighbourhood Forum have been created following a series of public meetings in 2019 and 2020.
A Handbridge Neighbourhood Plan could help promote and improve the social, economic and environmental well-being of the area.
This initiative is not to block planning applications but rather to support sustainable development proposals that could give long term benefits to local residents and businesses whilst retaining green spaces and the character and heritage of the area.
A final decision on the Handbridge Neighbourhood Plan will be made in a referendum that will be open to residents eligible to vote to participate in.
Membership of the Handbridge Neighbourhood Forum is open to individuals aged 16 or over who live, work, study or volunteer in the area.
