The new Felixstowe Seafront Development Strategy, which we have been developing over the last year, has been formally adopted by East Suffolk Council. The Strategy sets out a range of proposals for enhancements for over three miles of the seafront, including short-term projects such as improved lighting and way finding, as well as landscape and public realm improvements.

We developed the strategy in dialogue with the community, local businesses and stakeholders, to strengthen the unique character and appeal of Felixstowe’s seafront. The overall ambition is to encourage visitors to spend longer and enjoy the whole length of the seafront, as well as making the area work better for local residents.

Tim Wilson, ESC Cabinet Member with responsibility for Economic Development and Regeneration, said “The adoption of the Felixstowe Seafront Development Strategy sets a clear vision for the future ambition and investment into Felixstowe’s seafront.” Here at HAT, we look forward to supporting ESC to deliver the projects over the next few years.
