Have your say on the Biggleswade Green Wheel Masterplan

Central Bedfordshire Council is asking the local community to have their say on proposals for a ‘green corridor’ around Biggleswade.

 

The Council, Biggleswade Town Council and Bedfordshire Rural Communities Charity (BRCC) have worked together to create plans for a ‘Green Wheel’ around the town, providing a green corridor for Biggleswade residents.

 

The draft plan shows how the Green Wheel could provide an important landscape and biodiversity resource for the town as well as encourage walking and cycling in and around the local area.

 

Please read the draft Masterplan summary document (PDF 1MB) and give us your views by completing the online questionnaire by 28 December 2012. Full details of the Masterplan proposals can be viewed in the draft Masterplan (PDF 7.1MB) and appendices document (PDF 1.3MB).

 

There will also be two public displays where the plans will be available:

- Biggleswade Library (Tuesday 27 November – Saturday 1 December). Representatives from the Council and BRCC will be available to discuss the plans on Friday 30 November (10:00am – 2:00pm)

- Saxon Pool and Leisure Centre (Monday 3 December – Sunday 16 December). Representatives from the Council and BRCC will be available to discuss the plans on Wednesday 12 December (12:30pm – 4:30pm)

Paper copies will be available to view at the library and leisure centre during the display period.

Copies of the Biggleswade Green Wheel Consultation Masterplan and Survey are now available to collect from the Biggleswade Town Council office. The consultation closes on 28th December 2012.
