Your Vision for Newtownards Road 2030

A Local Action Group convened by EastSide Partnership has been working to shape a community vision for the Newtownards Road in east Belfast. The Local Action Group includes representation from community and statutory agencies, local residents and business, and elected members.

The approach been based on a ‘Living High Streets’ process of engagement and community led approach to placemaking.

The Newtownards Road is a great place that is full of history and pride. It is home to many successful businesses and community organisations and has seen many improvements take place over the past 20 years. Despite progress and improvements, it does however continue to struggle with socio-economic challenges and issues such as vacant buildings, dereliction and heavy traffic.

The emerging vision for Newtownards Road seeks to put in place an action plan for the future, focussed on bringing people together to further improve the road, one step at a time.

We are now in the final stage of the consultation process and would love to hear your feedback!
