WELSHPOOL TOWN COUNCIL
1 Introduction and background
1.1 Welshpool Town Council first published a Town Plan in 2008, Community Plans in 2007, 2010 and 2014, Transport Plan in 2014 and Regeneration Plan in 2013 all of which has guided the decisions made by the Council during the period from then to 2015. In 2015 all the current plans were produced in a single document called ‘The Welshpool Town Plan’. A copy of the previous plans are posted on the Town Council web site at www.welshpooltowncouncil.gov.uk along with the combined plan.
1.2 The Town has seen much change since 2008 and even more in 2016 in the Town Centre and in particular the following are noted:
i) The changes in the economic climate and shopping habits affected by those changes including internet shopping. ii) The settling down of the new traffic management system. iii) The change in parking habits due to the free parking now limited to 3 hours on the Tesco site and the higher charges imposed by the County Council on the public car parks. iv) The continued redevelopment of the Burgesses Land Trust site in Brookfield Road. v) The introduction of an improved rail service from May 2015. vi) The budget cuts by the principle authorities affecting service delivery, some of which affect the structure of the town. vii) The arrival of national names such as Aldi, B & M, Pets at Home and Greg’s the bakers. viii) The changes in tourism in that more families are now coming to Mid Wales with their pets in tow. ix) The lack of both industrial space (almost all full) and retail space (almost full) with no further obvious land available to expand.
