SUMMARY:Whitesands Project Update: Public Engagement Sessions
DESCRIPTION:Public Engagement Sessions in September \n  \nThe Whitesands Flood Protection Scheme is a significant investment in the future of Dumfries. Beyond providing essential flood protection for the town centre\, the project offers an opportunity to reshape and revitalise the River Nith waterfront through comprehensive public realm improvements. \nWith investment from the Scottish Government\, the project has the potential to transform the riverside into a dynamic and attractive space that is welcoming and inclusive where people will want to gather\, explore\, and spend time. \nSince the scheme was first published in 2017\, community input has played a vital role in shaping the vision. The next stage of the project focusses on creating a cohesive\, vibrant waterfront experience through landscaping\, pathways\, lighting\, seating\, and play areas\, in particular\, it is important that we get public feedback on the areas of Greensands\, Upper Whitesands and Dock Park. We want to understand how people move through and use the areas\, what draws them in\, and what will keep them coming back. We are looking to futureproof these spaces to ensure they stand the test of time\, having the ability to adapt to climate\, social trends\, and demographic change. \nYou can have your say by joining us at one of our two drop-in public engagement sessions which will be held at The Standard Building\, 139 High Street\, Dumfries on: \n  \nTuesday 2 September from 12:00pm to 7:00pm \nWednesday 3 September from 9:30am to 3.30pm \n\nThese sessions offer an opportunity for residents\, businesses\, and organisations to help shape how the riverfront should look\, feel\, and function. These conversations will directly inform the development of inclusive\, sustainable\, and meaningful public spaces. \nIf you are unable to attend the sessions\, you can still give your feedback by completing our online Whitesands Project survey which will be available on the Dumfries and Galloway Council website soon. \nWe look forward to hearing your views. \nGet in Touch \nIf you have any questions\, please contact the project team on WhitesandsProject@dumgal.gov.uk.
