The people of Dromore are invited to get their town into shape as part of an exciting initiative that will look at how Dromore could be improved for its people.
The Dromore Place Plan is being taken forward by the Armagh, Banbridge and Craigavon Community Planning Partnership of which Council is the lead partner. The partnership believes that places should be co-designed by the people who know them best – those who live, work, play and study there.
The plan is in the early development phase, and we want to hear from people about what makes Dromore special to them and what would help make the town a better place.
This project is funded by Armagh City, Banbridge and Craigavon Borough Council. HLM Architects has been appointed to develop the plan.
A number of engagement sessions have been planned for May – June 2024 and we’re looking forward to meeting people who live, work, play and study in Dromore.
