Laois County Council invites you to make submissions or observations to the pre-draft stage of the Portarlington Regeneration Strategy. The aim of the strategy is to create a vision for Portarlington’s public realm, including the suitable re-use of Market House and Square. The aim of the Strategy will be to identify key urban spaces designated for enhancement and connection, pedestrian priority linkages and proposals to better link the historic core with adjacent amenities (People’s Park, River Barrow, Leisure Centre and play areas).
As part of the process we want to engage with the wider community to understand the issues and potential areas for improvement which are evident to you. Your valuable ideas about where you live, and work will help shape this strategy for the regeneration of Portarlington. A plan outlining the study area is provided in the attached link.
Submissions and observations can be made by 5.00pm on Friday 20th November through the following options:
- Via the online consultation portal – https://consult.laois.ie/en/consultation/portarlington-regeneration-framework
- By email to portregen@laoiscoco.ie
