PROPOSED TIMELINE

Feasibility

Summer 2021

Initial conversations with Local Planning Authorities and other key stakeholders. Our Design Consultants begin work on surveys and reports such as Ecology Surveys, Landscape and Visual Impact Assessments, and Traffic Management Surveys.

Listening

Autumn 2021

Sharing our initial ideas through websites, leaflets, and exhibitions, and listening to the feedback. Meeting with members of the community, encouraging debate, discussion and scrutiny. Our plans are high-level at this point so that the communities we join can help shape the final design.

Designing

Autumn 2021

Incorporating feedback we have received from the community in to our plans. Updated plans and reports are shared on our project website as they become available.

Submitting

Late 2021

We are always here to listen. There will still be time to influence our design even after we’ve submitted our application to the Local Planning Authority.

Building

Autumn 2022

Once the site is operational, we want people to continue to engage with the project through educational visits and we want to continue to support local projects that align with our ethos.

Operating

Early 2023
