Town and district centres are at the heart of a community, how can we successfully design them for new large-scale developments? As part of the TCPA New Communities Group series of events, this webinar will explore modelling tools used to design and plan new town centres, as well as how to deliver town centres that meet the needs of the residents in the new developments. We will hear from organisations using innovative technology and approaches to planning new town and district centres, and from local authorities who are in the process of delivering new town centres in new communities across England.
