Chippenham Avon Project Masterplan Consultation document

1 The vision

Chippenham's Avon Project will be a lasting legacy of riverside green space and urban wildlife habitat for the people of Chippenham and its visitors to enjoy well into the future.

It is therefore proposed that a Chippenham "River Green Corridor" should be created that provides better flood mitigation and improves the public realm through the town centre as well as providing a focal point for the town. The Chippenham Avon Project aims to enrich the river's ambiance and enhance its overall quality, whilst implementing essential flood risk mitigation measures to safeguard both current and future residents and businesses. This initiative is designed to build resilience against the impacts of climate change. It will also improve walking and cycling links north/ south through Chippenham and help in connecting any new development to the town centre.
