Regenerating Harlow

Revitalising Clifton Hatch, Old Harlow, Prentice Place & Staple Tye

 

 

The East of England faces an exciting future of regeneration and economic growth, so it is important that Harlow is well-placed to take full advantage of investment within the region.

 

Harlow Council has been working with partners to improve the facilities and environment for local people by attracting funding to the town. The Gateway Scheme, development of the Town Centre and the new housing at Newhall are just three examples of schemes that will help regenerate Harlow to become the regions first choice location for new jobs and investment in housing.

 

In February 2006 the Council annouced that it had won nearly £10m of funding from the government to spend on a business innovation centre and on improving some of Harlow neighbourhoods. Four locations have been identified for renewal: Clifton Hatch, Old Harlow, Prentice Place and Staple Tye.

 

A series of public consultations took place in June 2006 to explore options and possibilities for each location; Harlow Council engaged Urbancanda a private company specialising in public consultation to design, facilitate and report back on a series of five public events.

 

Urbancanda have now produced a report providing a key document highlighting the main issues and results of all five public consultations and can be viewed by clicking on the following link:
