Following review, the initial 2010 masterplan was enhanced to include the delivery of more green space in the region, as well as the regeneration of Smithfield Square and Jordan's Mill.
Alderman Allan Ewart MBE, Chairman of Lisburn & Castlereagh City Council's Development Committee, said: "The regeneration of Lisburn city centre is a key priority for the council; and following receipt of previous consultation responses we have enhanced the information contained within our masterplan. Progress on the initial 2010 masterplan has been taking place but we wish to finalise the future plans for our city centre.

"A vibrant city centre is important for the regional significance and economic potential of Lisburn Castleregh and will boost the night time economy. Our revised masterplan is aspirational, deliverable and we are delighted to have received comments to date from stakeholders."

Please look again at the revised proposals and provide further views to continue to help shape the future development of Lisburn City Centre."
