Have your say on the Romford Town Centre Masterplan
The public consultation of the Romford Masterplan opens today, Monday 30 September 2024.
This consultation marks a significant step in shaping the future of Romford, ensuring that the voices of residents, businesses and stakeholders are heard and incorporated into the development plans.
The Romford Masterplan was approved for consultation by Cabinet on 18 September 2024 following extensive public consultation earlier in the year.
Its key features include improved public spaces in particular the marketplace, re-naturalising the River Rom, and enhancing other green spaces.
It also includes new housing designed to meet the needs of a growing population, and supporting the delivery of infrastructure.
Residents are encouraged to attend the consultation drop-in sessions held at Romford Library, where they will have the opportunity to review the proposed plans, ask questions and provide feedback.

Closing date is Monday 11 November, at 11:59pm and feedback from the consultation will be used to refine the masterplan before it is finalised and submitted for adoption in early 2025.
