Planning for the future
We want to know your views to prepare a town centre ‘vision and masterplan’ for future developments.
Your views will help us deliver Dartford's Local Plan, which sets out our ambitions for changing the town centre.
The Local Plan's aims include:
- To grow a resident community with a choice of housing for young and old, boosting the town centre economy, spending and local vitality, supporting a 24 hour sense of security.
- To secure land and funding for new community facilities, especially to serve new residential neighbourhoods.
- To continue and expand further public realm improvements and improved cycling and walking routes, including green and blue infrastructure.
- To plan modern public transport facilities, and better interchanges, and to update access and vehicle parking strategy.
- To grow the cultural/ leisure offer further, with the Orchard Theatre in particular acting as a catalyst to help further promote the town’s arts and creative activities.
