Place Visions

 

 

The successful bids for Future High Streets Funding, Town Deal, Levelling Up Partnership, Levelling Up Round 3 (LUF3), and the recent direct award through the Plans for Neighbourhoods, in addition to the development sites acquired by the Council since 2019, has created the need to for a place vision that links the funding and assets (development sites) together. This will create a clear vision of how development sites work together to regenerate Torbay as whole.

 

A Torquay Town Centre Vision has already been approved by the Cabinet.  The Cabinet is due to approve documents for Paignton and Brixham and an overarching Vision for Torbay over the next few months.
