Cllr Marshall and Derek Bradley COMMUNITIES across County Durham are being given a brighter, greener future as a multi-million pound regeneration programme begins to take shape. Durham County Council’s recently approved Towns and Villages Strategy is now being rolled out right across the county, ensuring better outcomes for communities, and focusing on the priorities identified by residents and partners. The Towns and Villages Investment Plan has committed £20m to those areas most in need or impacted by the pandemic and, following extensive consultation, a further £5m has been allocated across the authority’s Area Action Partnerships to deliver against their own priorities for regeneration.
What are the advantages of the change? First, scale. Simply put, an organisation covering a population of half a million or more is larger and more able to compete economically than smaller councils. Since 2009, the unitary Durham County Council has attracted the Hitachi train plant to Newton Aycliffe above 40 rival bids. It has hosted the birth and rapid growth of Lumiere, now the UK’s biggest light festival and more recently has attracted the construction of a new large-scale Amazon fulfilment centre built at the Integra site off the A1(M). This is one of several major developments currently in progress as part of a huge investment plan, expected to bring 30,000 new jobs to County Durham over the next decade.
