Leyland Regeneration Discussion

Don't put Leyland on sidelines'
Lancashire Evening Post - 27 January 2009

Leyland will be left lagging behind Preston unless changes are made to a regeneration strategy, it has been claimed.

The town's regeneration board claims the Central Lancashire Core Strategy – which will shape the way the area is developed over the next 15 years – focuses too much on Preston.

Nigel McGurk, chairman of the board, said: "Whilst the draft strategy rightly emphasises the important role of Preston, it does so in a way that relegates Leyland and Chorley to the sidelines – which is something we will not stand by and watch.

"Leyland is the administrative centre of an economically successful borough and policies should be encouraging its growth and vibrancy, not its stagnation."

Has anyone heard any more about the regeneration? It seems to have gone quiet since the big announcement.

Not a beep Martin, there is an e-mail address to request updates of the various schemes.
