A Community Vision for Fishponds

The Fishponds Community Planning Group is creating a Community Vision for Central Fishponds — and we need your voice.

In our last survey, residents told us they’re concerned about things like traffic, transport, parking, schools, and access to GPs and dentists. With new developments proposed and more people expected to move into the area, these concerns are growing.

Large-scale development will bring investment into Fishponds. To make sure that investment leads to the improvements that matter most to local people, we’re putting together a Community Vision shaped by your feedback.

Help us shape the future of Fishponds — provide us with the information we need and share your views by completing the survey below.
