Craigavon, Lurgan and Portadown- Your Voice Matters

Overview

Introduction

The people of Craigavon, Lurgan & Portadown are invited to take part in this exciting place planning initiative that will look at how the three towns and the wider place could be improved for its people.

This plan planning process is at the early ‘Discovery’ stage and we want to understand how you feel about your Place, its strengths and challenges:

• What makes the area special to you?
• How do you interact with your town, whether it be Craigavon, Lurgan or Portadown?
• What would help make the area a better place to live, work or visit?

The Place Plans are being taken forward by Armagh, Banbridge and Craigavon Community Planning Partnership of which Council is the lead partner. The project is jointly funded by Council and the Department for Communities. CARLIN Planning has been commissioned to develop the Place Plan’s, with the plan making process envisaged to be completed over the next two years.
