The Carrickfergus community is warmly invited to participate in the next consultation event for the transformative £42 million regeneration project, part of the Belfast Region City Deal. This vital initiative, led by Mid and East Antrim Borough Council in collaboration with the project’s design team, aims to revitalize Carrickfergus and establish it as a key heritage-led tourism destination.
The consultation event will take place on Wednesday, 28th August 2024, from 4:00 pm to 8:00 pm at Carrickfergus Civic Centre. Structured as an informal “drop-in” session, this event provides an excellent opportunity for residents and community groups to engage directly with the design team. Attendees will have the chance to review the latest project developments, share feedback, and contribute to the ongoing evolution of the proposals.
This session is the second in a series of six planned consultations, ensuring that the community’s voice remains at the forefront of the project as it progresses. The Carrickfergus regeneration project represents a once-in-a-generation opportunity, poised to create over 150 permanent jobs in various attractions and more than 140 construction jobs during its development. The investment will not only drive inclusive economic growth but also reposition Carrickfergus as a must-visit starting point on the internationally renowned Causeway Coastal Route.
To learn more about the emerging plans and how they will enhance Carrickfergus’ visitor offering, residents are encouraged to attend the drop-in session at a time that suits them. For those interested in participating, there is no need to register in advance, but further inquiries can be directed to majorprojectsteam@midandeastantrim.gov.uk.
This exciting regeneration initiative is a critical step in rebranding Carrickfergus, and the council urges community members to take part in shaping the future of their town through these consultations. Your input is essential in co-designing a vibrant, thriving Carrickfergus for generations to come.
