Carlisle Masterplan

The Carlisle Masterplan is an ambitious plan that will help to shape the future of the city over the next 25 years and beyond.  

From earlier phases of consultation with the community and stakeholders, the Masterplan sets out a vision and a strategy for Carlisle that considers economic, social and environmental aspects of the city. It proposes a wide range of potential projects of varying scale and complexity, which will help to deliver the vision over the lifespan of the plan. 

The masterplan addresses two levels of scale: 

• the wider city: strategic growth areas and connections
• the city centre: regeneration and placemaking

We will take a leading role in delivering the Masterplan working with partners, key stakeholders, the wider community and businesses to help shape a positive future for Carlisle.

Carlisle has benefited from an ongoing process of regeneration with recent investments of over £300m, bringing significant enhancements to the City.  

All of the proposals in the masterplan will require further detailed feasibility assessment and design prior to being confirmed and delivered.
