Through clever use of all those elements and more town planners are keen to make Bognor Regis easier to navigate, more visually appealing and better connected. “Bognor Regis has a lot to offer,” a spokesperson said: “But it’s not currently very well signposted! Visitors arriving at the station are directed into the town or towards the sea. And the key destinations within the town – the station, the retail area, the beach promenade, the University and Butlins – aren’t well linked..”
The workshop was announced after the Regeneration Board secured a significant grant from Arun District Council’s allocation of the UK Shared Prosperity Fund to run a community led design process until March next year. The grant also covers the installations of the resulting designs along a series of key routes.
