Have Your Say
On this website, we have outlined our proposals for the phased redevelopments of Uplands Business Park
We have now hosted our two in-person exhibitions on Saturday 5th and Wednesday 9th of February. The two exhibitions were attended by a total of over 100 people, a mix of residents and businesses. We are very pleased to have had the chance to engage with all those interested, explain our proposals and gain valuable feedback.
