Chester One City Plan

Since 2012, Chester has taken a strategic long-term view of how the city could evolve and thrive. Our One City Plan sets out a vision for a modern, vibrant city where the public, private and community sectors are working together to make Chester a fairer, stronger, and greener city.

First published in 2012, the One City Plan set out a strategic vision and regeneration priorities for the future of Chester over a 15-year period. This resulted in over fifty projects with a combined investment of almost £1 billion.

These projects have all created jobs, increased tourism and given Chester a positive economic boost, see more here. We have achieved a lot but there’s much more to do.
