Mampitts Community Hub

Mampitts Community Hub – Usage and Car Park Design Feedback Survey

 

Shaftesbury Town Council would like residents’ views on the proposed new design of the car park for the planned community hub at Mampitts Green, as well as further input on the usage of the hub.

The new design has been developed by landscape architects in response to resident concerns that the current ring parking proposal would present problematic vehicular interactions with Maple Road, and would be difficult to ensure the spaces were only used by visitors to the Mampitts Hub.

Indeed, the Highways Agency have stated previously that the use and placement of bollards on the existing ring parking proposal would be unworkable. However they also provided no objection in terms of highway safety with the existing proposal. Access to the new car park design would be controlled via a single bollard or a gate.

Respondents to the survey should also be aware that the new design will be more expensive, in the region of £50,000-£70,000 more than the current design.

Please note that the design and location of the hub building and its interior layout has been settled via the planning process.

In this survey, we are looking to gather further details on potential uses of the hub. We will continue to engage with the local community as the project develops.

Your feedback will be kept confidential and used only for the Mampitts Community Hub project, in line with GDPR. To learn more, please read our GDPR General Privacy Notice.
