PROJECTS
The Projects
We want to protect and enhance what’s special about Truro, its heritage, cultural identity, compact environment and strong sense of community, whilst working to become a leading destination which is more vibrant, better connected and greener.
This means building on our strengths to create a place where new and existing businesses can grow and flourish. A place for leisure, for healthy and active lifestyles and for fun. A place where different generations can live well, work productively and contribute to a strong and resilient place in balance with the environment.
We want Truro to be a place with a brilliant future. Achieving this requires a catalyst for change which can create jobs, turbocharge the economy, tackle social inequality, and attract new visitors.
