Living & working

The vision is for the river to become a place where people choose to live, work and spend their leisure time.

Along both sides of the river, existing communities will be transformed and new communities created. Community based projects reflect the drive and enthusiasm of local people to get involved, with consultation providing a means of reflecting local opinion.
