Innovation Actions

Continue to utilise public Wi-Fi and create spaces for interactivity, learning and networking which enhance the experience of the High Street.

Support and encourage high speed data hub workspaces.

Investigate integrated ticketing on public transport.

Where appropriate, encourage the use of real- time information displays for buses, car parks and advisory messages regarding congestion on the surrounding road network.

Use digital information to monitor the town centre footfall, bus congestion, car movements and journey times in order to inform decisions for future transport and public realm improvements.

Collective and individual opportunities are being developed for local SMEs, retail chains, market traders and public services to collaborate, using digital innovation to connect customers to the High Street and drive local economic growth.

Support government initiatives to roll out 5G.
