Shotwick Park engagement (May to June 2025)

Share your feedback on draft plans for Shotwick Park

We are pleased to share draft plans for Shotwick Park. These plans have been designed in response to feedback from the local community earlier this year on the vision for the site. We would now like to hear local community views on the detailed designs, to ensure that they enhance the site for the benefit of local people, nature and the climate.

• View the draft plans here or download in PDF format here.
• Key questions and answers are available here.
• Information on how we are responding to local community feedback can be found here.

How to share your feedback

You can come along to any of the following drop-in sessions to talk to the project team about the draft plans for Shotwick Park. These are informal events where you can drop in at any time between the times given.

How your feedback will be used

Once this community engagement closes, the Council will consider the feedback received to help inform final plans for the site. A summary of the engagement findings will be published here alongside final plans for the site.

If proposals are agreed, ground preparation work could commence on the land at Shotwick Park in late summer 2025, in order to allow the first phase of tree planting to commence in winter 2025/26.
