2024 - 11 July 2024 to 13 October

Engagement survey and interactive map

We asked you to tell us what you think is working well in your neighbourhood and what you'd like to see improved.
Liveable neighbourhoods make places safer for people, reduce noise and air pollution, encourage exercise, reduce loneliness and make life better overall. We'd like to get your opinions on what's working well in your neighbourhood and what you'd like to see improved.
Improvements can include simple things like more trees, benches and places for people to meet, or more complex things like changing how traffic moves through the area.
