Sevenoaks Town Council has commissioned Urban Initiatives Studio to produce two Masterplans - one for the Town Centre and one for the St John's Area. These will set out a spatial vision for the two areas and provide guidance for any future development that may take place, including improving the pedestrian environment, supporting the local economy and reducing traffic.
The Masterplans will build upon the work previously completed in the Sevenoaks Town Neighbourhood Plan, identifying key opportunities for future development – including design guidance, enhancements to cultural attractions, improvements to the pedestrian environment, any potential traffic mitigation measures and opportunities for greener infrastructure to enhance the biodiversity of the areas. The key purpose is to set out a clear vision - informed and endorsed by local people - for what future development should look like within the Town.
