Live consultations

Your input and feedback on major projects is important to us. It helps us shape and develop projects that are the best fit for all. We will list live public consultations on this page, as well as events and other opportunities to get involved.

Live consultations 

When we are developing a project, we run public consultations and we ask for input and feedback from a range of people and organisations. Consultation helps us to better understand what people are looking for from a project. What we find out helps us to: understand if our designs meet the needs of the community, make sure we don’t miss out on ideas, and allows us to make design choices to progress the project.

We get hundreds of suggestions and ideas. Decisions on the ideas we can take forward are based on lots of different criteria including cost, impact on other areas, equality, and whether they meet the criteria for funding.   We work through all the insights we have from consultation and seek to achieve the best possible benefits for the community. It is not always possible to cater for everyone.
