The overall aim is to develop an aspirational, comprehensive and deliverable vision for the town centre over the next 10 to 15 years.
The council has recently undertaken a thorough review of Horsham to include population growth and social and economic factors in order to shape their ideas.
As well as setting out the strategic directions for the town centre a number of potential development sites have been identified with a view to exploring and delivering new public realm schemes that would benefit the town centre.
