The second phase of engagement for the Draft Margate Masterplan closed on Tuesday, 30 July 2024.
This round of public consultation aimed to seek feedback on the Draft Margate Masterplan that was endorsed by Council on 1 July 2024.
The initial engagement conducted earlier in 2024 informed the development of the Draft Plan which aims to create a safer, more inviting Margate Main Street.
The project team are working collaboratively with the Department of State Growth to ensure the Channel Highway serves the needs of our growing community.
State Growth has conducted its own consultation with the community separately to investigate pedestrian and cyclist safety crossing options in Margate (and Snug).

This first phase of community engagement focused on understanding the diverse needs of our community through a survey.
This helped to understand current issues and capture ideas from residents, workers, shoppers, and visitors who use the area.
This information was sought via a survey that received over 1,000 responses. It was open from 13 February 2024 until 12 March 2024.
