Character Area 2: River Worth Linear Park

The aim is to create an attractive, mixed-use riverside community, improving access to the River Worth and create a more attractive environment for pedestrians and cyclists. 

Key interventions include:

• Activation of the River Worth – Reorientating the town to front the River Worth and activate the riverside with the creation of the River Worth Linear Park.
• Residential uses – Relocation of existing industrial uses to provide new riverside housing sites.
• Reconfiguration of Low Mills – to provide a high-quality mixed-use development which makes the most of the heritage asset.

The proposed interventions as set out are indicative only. There is no funding commitment at this stage to deliver the vision. If the proposals are supported by stakeholders, a more detailed delivery plan would be considered as funding opportunities arise.
