Central Bedfordshire Council has launched a consultation on their new Local Plan which will start to shape the future of new homes, jobs and infrastructure, recreation and leisure, transport, local facilities and green spaces in the years ahead.
The Council wants to hear from people of all ages, and across all its towns, villages and communities, about what is important to them and their families for the future of the area. Early engagement with local councillors, at both ward and town and parish level, have highlighted six themes which will be a starting point for the conversation about the new Local Plan – a blueprint for Central Bedfordshire’s future:
- Access to outstanding new or improved green space and nature
- Jobs that are easy to get to
- High-quality, well-designed homes for every stage of life
- Excellent transport options, including walking and cycling
- Great local facilities such as roads, schools, shops, and parks
- Respecting and enhancing the unique character of our towns and villages
