In 2008, the Council commissioned URBED consultants to develop a spatial masterplan which will allow Hucknall town centre to respond positively to the economic and social changes which have taken place in the area. It is anticipated that the Masterplan will provide a framework for public and private investment for the town centre over the next 15 - 20 years.

The aim of the masterplan was to identify the strengths and weaknesses of the town centre, to identify development opportunities, to create a vision for the future and to map out a strategy to get there. In doing this the Masterplan sets out a vision for Hucknall as a good place to shop, work, visit and live in order to increase the viability of the town centre and to attract long term investment.

The Masterplan has undergone various stages of consultation, including a walkabout session with local ward members and community representatives, a stakeholder event aimed to develop a range of priorities for action and options for development, and a general public consultation event which asked for comments on specific proposals.

A report on each of the consultation events can be viewed through the links below.
