The engagement of this project has ended
Do you want to receive an email when news items are posted?
In a series of engagement activities and events last year, the local community told us what changes they wanted to see in the High Street to make it attractive, accessible and welcoming to people, as well as highlighting Wick’s cultural heritage. We’ve used this feedback to come up with design proposals and are giving you the opportunity to view, comment and shape these initial proposals. These draft designs are now available to view outside Caithness House as well as on our project website .
How to have your sayUntil 14 September , you can get involved in this stage of the project in the following ways:
Accessible Design Workshop - How accessible are the new designs for Wick High Street?
In this online workshop, you’ll learn more about the aspects of the designs that aim to make High Street and the crossings on Bridge Street more accessible, and provide feedback on how they might impact people of differing abilities. If you encounter barriers that make it difficult for you to get around as a pedestrian (including motorised wheelchair and mobility scooter users), join us on 2 September to tell us how these new proposals will impact you.

Wick Street Design Project – Exploring the Designs
In this webinar, you’ll learn more about the designs and how they might impact you. You’ll also be able to engage directly with our design team, give feedback and ask questions. We are particularly interested in hearing from those who live, work or own a business on or near the High Street and Bridge Street.
