PUBLIC REALM + STREET DESIGN |
Roscrea Town Centre First Plan | Tipperary County Council
Commissioned by Tipperary County Council, working with O’Mahoney Pike (lead), Urban Movement led on the development of the public realm and transport elements of the Town Centre First (TCF) Plan for Roscrea. The Plan established a vision for Roscrea’s successful future; making the town centre a more attractive place to live, work, socialise and run a business. This vision was then disseminated into a project Action Plan, with individual projects being designed up - including a new Town Plaza in a once vehicle dominated space; a reimagined biodiverse green space; and a healthier street network.
This Town Centre First (TCF) Plan aims to map out potential development and establish a vision for Roscrea’s future. It has a focus on tackling dereliction and vacant properties and making the town centre a more attractive place to live, work, socialise and run a business. This initiative aims to help re-imagine and revitalise rural communities as part of the National Town Centre First Policy.
The design team have been working with the Town Team and the Council’s Town Regeneration Officer to establish an emerging vision for Roscrea Town Centre and a list of potential projects. The design team have also undertaken a number of online and in-person consultations with the public to better understand the issues on the ground.
The study area for this project is defined as by a 10-minute walking distance from the town centre.
