Improving the Elder Place corridor

We’re asking for your views on our ideas and early designs to bring new life into the Elder Place corridor. This includes Elder Place, Providence Place and St Peter’s Street.

We want to make this area feel safer and more welcoming. By improving the Elder Place corridor, London Road will also become more attractive and enjoyable for everyone.

We know that the Elder Place corridor doesn’t feel safe or welcoming right now. There’s a lot of graffiti and antisocial behaviour, the pavements are narrow or missing and it’s not easy for everyone to get around. It’s also poorly lit and lacks greenery, which makes it feel run-down.

Our proposed 'concept plan'

We’ve prepared a 'concept plan' for the area which includes early ideas and draft designs. We’d love to hear what you think about our proposals.

We’d also like to know how you think the area could be improved and if you'd like to get involved.

Get involved and collaborate

We’re inviting residents and the local community to help shape the future of the Elder Place corridor at in-person engagement events.

Come along to a drop-in exhibition to meet our team, see the designs and ask any questions you might have.

Residents also have the opportunity to collaborate with us at co-design sessions to reimagine Providence Place Gardens and explore ideas for public art in the area.

We want the Elder Place corridor to work for everyone, so we’re holding two extra co-design sessions to hear from children and young people and people with protected characteristics. Their ideas will help shape the plan and guide future design choices.

If you, your business, or your organisation want to get involved in making positive changes in the area, email us at ElderPlaceCorridor@brighton-hove.gov.uk.
