- Future Plan For Bayswater
Share your thoughts on our future plan for Bayswater Activity Centre. Have your say by 5 May for your chance to win an entertainment voucher.
The draft Bayswater Renewal Strategy has been developed to ensure the activity centre continues to be a thriving hub for community life and business until 2040. Your feedback we receive will help us to finalise the strategy.
The draft strategy guides development to support population growth and housing needs, while protecting Bayswater’s distinctive character. The draft strategy also aims to balance economic, social and environmental matters.
Key initiatives in the draft strategy include transforming Penguin Place and Macauley Place, increasing the number of people living in the centre, facilitating the renewal of Bayswater Triangle, and developing a night-time economy.
Community engagement in 2020 and 2022, helped inform priorities and initiatives identified in the draft strategy.
Provide feedback or find out more on our Have your say website.
