News on York Central

Firstly, the York Central Partnership would like to thank everyone who has left comments so far. We're seeing a wide range of views and ideas being provided.

We'd like to take the opportunity to ask you to share this project with family and friends and encourgage them to join the conversation around the future plans for the York Central development, before the masterplan exhibition closes on Friday 27th April 2018.

The six week exhibition, which was launched last month at the National Railway Museum, explores the emerging masterplan for the site and has been designed to encourage visitors to provide feedback on the plans and share their own ideas.

Feedback from the six week festival will help inform the evolution of the masterplan and the future planning submission, as well as shaping longer-term thinking around the site.

The exhibition is open to the public until Friday 27th April 2018 and is being held in The Gallery at the National Railway Museum. All of the exhibition content and site plans can also be viewed online at www.yorkcentral.info .

Representatives from the partnership will be on hand at the exhibition every Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday at the following times to answer any questions:

Visitors will be able to leave feedback online at www.yorkcentral.info until midnight on Sunday 29th April and paper questionnaire forms are available at the exhibition.

Tamsin Hart-Jones, project lead from York Central Partnership, said: “We have had a really positive response from people at the exhibition so far and the ideas and comments are helping to inform and influence the emerging masterplan.

“This is such an exciting moment for the project and we want to make sure that as many people as possible join in the conversation, get involved and help shape this part of the city.”

Alongside the exhibition, My York Central has been running a wide programme of community events, as part of the My York Central project, capturing the needs and ideas of York residents and exploring the long-term challenges and opportunities around York Central.

The remaining programme of events run by My York Central can be found at www.myyorkcentral.org .
