Plans to improve both of Aylesbury’s Kingsbury and Market Square have been released.
The design concepts, which have emerged from two earlier engagement opportunities, and are now being shared for a final time before the detailed planning application is submitted.
The project to renovate both areas is due to cost around £4.5m.
Additionally, Buckinghamshire Council’s design and engagement partner, Untitled Practice, will share the vision they have developed for these spaces via an online exhibition and a series of Zoom presentations between February 15 and February 24.
The online sessions will allow participants to hear all about the plans, ask questions and give feedback.
Steve Bowles, Cabinet Member for Town Centre Regeneration said: “Creating attractive and safe public spaces for use by everyone, has never been more important following the pandemic and its impact on town centres.
What Kingsbury Square looks like at the moment
“The new square in the Exchange is extremely popular and we want to build on this experience.
"This is your chance to help us re-design Aylesbury’s treasured Kingsbury and Market Square public spaces for the future.
“These areas are the heart of the town centre and we want to hear from everyone that will use them to ensure they are the best they can be.
"So, whether you live or work in Aylesbury, or visit to shop and socialise, please get involved.
