West Sussex County Council (WSCC) is prioritising public realm improvements to Chichester City Centre. The existing public realm within the pedestrianised zones of East and North Streets is deteriorating and the current surface has reached the end of its useful life.

WSCC have engaged with key local stakeholders, most notably Chichester District Council (CDC), CDC’s Heritage Officer, Chichester City Council, Chichester Business District and Chichester Cathedral, who all support the recommended designs. As a result, in October, WSCC published a Key Decision (opens in a new tab) approving funds to undertake preliminary and detailed designs to improve North and East Street.

To ensure the proposals meet the needs of the residents, visitors and businesses that use it every day, concept designs focus on ensuring the new public realm is safe and accessible for all, in-keeping with Chichester’s heritage while also providing a value for money option.
