Your views wanted on elements of Stockton Waterfront's urban park

MGL Demolition is demolishing the Castlegate Shopping Centre and Swallow Hotel to enable Stockton Waterfront – a bold and visionary urban park in the heart of the Town Centre.

Stockton-on-Tees Borough Council is asking residents, businesses and visitors for their thoughts and ideas to help shape the plans for the urban park.

People can share their thoughts by visiting stockton.gov.uk/stockton/urban-park from Monday, 8 August, until Friday, 26 August.

You can also pick up a paper copy of the questionnaire in Enjoy Stockton on the High Street or Stockton Library and submit it in person.

In-person engagement sessions with members of the Council’s Town Centres Development Team at Enjoy Stockton have begun, and you can still take part:

  • Wednesday 10 August from 10am until 2pm
  • Monday 15 August from 10am until 2pm
  • Wednesday 17 August from 10am until 2pm

Key themes and zones for the urban park have been developed, and images will show the potential for what could be included to create a space with a wide range of community activities.

These include a riverside space, a play area, an open space capable of hosting large-scale events, a multifunctional square to accommodate markets, events, and performances, and a quiet space for community planting and relaxing.

All feedback will be collected and considered, and further refinements will be made to the existing design before the final scheme is presented in autumn. There will then be a period of more detailed design, leading to construction work beginning on the site following the completion of the demolition next summer.

It is an exciting time for Stockton, and we are proud to support the regeneration and repurposing of the Borough’s town centres.
