Overview

As part of the ongoing commitment to regeneration, Armagh City, Banbridge and Craigavon Borough Council have recently appointed a Design Team to undertake the design of an Environmental Improvement Scheme, providing high quality improvements within Gilford, Markethill and Rathfriland town centres.

The schemes aim to enhance streetscape by proposing to deliver new pavement treatments, lighting, enhanced shared space, street furniture, signage and decorative features.  The designs will be implemented to complement the town centre experience.

Why your views matter

We would be grateful if you could spend a couple of minutes to answer a few questions. Your answers will be considered as we design and implement this project.  All views are greatly appreciated.

All questions relate solely to your chosen town. 

Any answers provided will be in confidence.
