Torpoint Vision and Torpoint and Rame Peninsula Economic Plan

Clifton Emery Design

The Vision for Torpoint sets out a physical vision for the town, with a strategy and 50 ideas that point to how it could be improved. The vision will now underpin the town neighbourhood plan, providing a physical vision to inform planning policy – giving quality design a high profile in the process of regeneration. The aim is that the new image will help to support a new civic pride in residents.The landscape team engaged more than 2000 of the 9000 residents in consultation, as well as studying economic indicators and the planning context.The Vision advocates a flexible approach to regeneration so that the town can respond over time to changing economic circumstances. It puts the environment and sustainable design first and, by generating a positive momentum from the right projects being delivered in the right place at the right time, the impact on the town could be transformational.
