We used your feedback to help inform the design of a new draft Masterplan.
How we consulted
We ran community engagement between 5 March and 9 May 2021.
The purpose of this first round of consultation was to gather information about:
- current usage of the street
- issues and opportunities.
Our target audience was people who live, work, visit and own businesses in Alfrieda Street.
We held online and in-person consultation activities. We translated project information into Vietnamese, Arabic and Punjabi. A Vietnamese speaking facilitator was available for on-site workshops. The communications and engagement activities were effective in engaging over 440 participants.
