Why our vision is important: Our city has the opportunity and potential to become thriving and attractive. By 2028 Gloucester city centre will be an attractive, safe and vibrant place where people come together, and enterprise and nature thrive
We have already undertaken four City Centre Symposiums during 2021 and 2022, followed by research open to all residents. This allowed a truly collaborative vision to be written.
Through our vision for Gloucester we want to:
Create a common purpose
Ongoing dialogue and engagement with city centre users is
crucial, be they residents, visitors, or the businesses that occupy the Gate Streets and Docks. Only by
listening to and understanding the many voices in the city can
agencies take effective decisions.
Present a shared view
It is important that many different voices and views are heard and that it continues to have input from industry, the environment, government, and most importantly,
city centre residents and users.
Inform bids
For external funding to further drive the investment and redevelopment of Gloucester city centre.
Portray our ambition
Gloucester is a city of promise and opportunity. It has massive strengths, like its young and diverse population, its glorious history, its community of dynamic businesses, and the quality of its surrounding countryside and natural environment. It is the County-city of Gloucestershire,
benefiting from good transport links, a first-class hospital,
numerous large employers, and the administrative HQs of the City, County and Police authorities.
Steer future strategies
It will be a reference point for decisions made by the Council that affect the city centre and will inform the strategies and policies that guide the growth and regeneration of the city centre in the period to 2028.
