Camborne Renew is in the final stages of the detailed design. The project team are working hard to develop the scheme that delivers change, aligns with the project budgets and provides minimum disruption during the construction phase.

The underground utility survey has posed a number of engineering challenges to the scheme with alternative solutions required. Further traffic speed surveys have been undertaken as well as accessibility audits. Road coring and utility trial pits will be undertaken in the new year to confirm some of the more challenging aspects of the design and to confirm the pavement calculations.

The project team are aiming to complete design shortly. The scheme will then undergo the public statutory consultation in the new year.

What is this project about?

This project seeks to stimulate the local economy and dwelling time in the town centre by providing an enhanced environment. The core project focuses on Trelowarren Street and Commercial Square.

  • Enhancing the appearance of the town centre
  • Encouraging people to stay longer and thereby supporting the high street economy
  • Providing a welcoming and safe environment for all users of the town
  • Supporting and adding value to the other Town Deal projects

The Camborne Renew project is not about:

  • Pedestrianisation and banning cars
  • Reducing the number of car parking spaces available to high street users
