During the next three years, we will work with communities to create Town Investment Plans for 32 towns and key centres across the county.
The investment plans will be developed using a place-based approach as set out in the York and North Yorkshire Economic Framework.
The plans will identify projects that promote social regeneration, well-being, and reduced inequalities, ensuring towns are well-connected, vibrant, and fit for the future. The plans include these key themes:
- supporting local businesses: providing better digital access, new workspaces, and a balanced mix of shops, homes, leisure, and commercial spaces in town centres
- creating sustainable places: improving walking and cycling options and building infrastructure that helps tackle climate challenges
- protecting heritage and boosting growth: investing in cultural and historic assets, finding new uses for empty buildings, and improving public spaces to draw visitors and support town centre activity
- improving health and community well-being: helping reduce health inequalities and supporting healthier, more connected communities
