HAVE YOUR SAY ON CONTENTIOUS HEREFORD CITY PLANS
While it's exciting to see pretty new development happening in Hereford City, taking away essential central parking spots for when we want to pop into town (or have a night out) without having to shlep to carparks is only going to be detrimental for shoppers AND therefore for the already challenged businesses, not mention the suffering nightime economy.
Even the Hereford City Business Improvement District is opposed to it (see letter from their CEO below) - See more details and have your say on what you think might work here: https://cathedralriverwyequarter.co.uk/

VISION FOR CATHEDRAL & RIVER WYE QUARTER EXCITING BUT CRITICAL CHANGES NEEDED TO PLAN | Read the press release here from HBID CEO, Mike Truelove :

It is not that businesses are ungrateful for the recently unveiled vision for Broad, Bridge and King Street – in fact, the hospitality sector (in particular) are delighted that there could be extended paving for a café culture. As for more trees in the ground, what’s not to like? However, what truly worries many is that if you are a retailer, pharmacist, sandwich shop, florist, or estate agent, how are their customers going to pop in to grab items and then go if the parking is down the road? Yes, you may well argue (justifiably in some cases) that people ought to park in larger car parks and not on the street, but that ignores those who struggle to walk far and those who, dare I say it, pop into these shops because it is convenient. Take away the parking and you remove a major reason to shop here which equates to shop closures. Suddenly, once popular streets become a hotchpotch of empty units; it is as simple as that.

If we are serious about improving the area, everyone needs to be taken on the journey and not leave behind those who have been there for (in some instances over 100 years) and have evolved around the ability to park outside. There must be a compromise. It would also be useful if there was a parallel or even leading plan to improve parking and transport in the city. Where is the vision for new multi-story car parks? Further, High Town and St Peter Street have been discussed for the last 6 years with millions ready to use from the LEP and match-funded by Herefordshire Council. If projects that have funding cannot be implemented, what hope do we have for Broad Street?

One last final point, it is critical that the whole of the city centre is looked at as part of a masterplan – we need streets that flow into each other with a common theme or 'brand' (think of those ugly stainless steel benches in Eign Gate that were recently taken down). Either way, I encourage you to air your views whilst the online consultation is open: https://lnkd.in/eVjNqcE6

Someone asked me how I 'do it all' the other and then 'what are you going to do next'.
I think this is my next ambition ...

Hello Folks
Well it's been a while since I've posted on here because all my attentions have been with developing www.eatsleepliveherefordshire.co.uk at this crucial time duting covid.

I'm finding all the talk about being 'post pandemic' rather strange, are you?

Perhaps we are a little more out of the woods, but the compass still doesn't point to a clear path.

The fallout of the last 2 years is still well and truly with my ESL Members in so many ways.

How is your business navigating this 'reset' environment?
