Your Vision for the Aldershot Mobility Hub
As the area around the Aldershot GO develops over the next 20+ years we want to know…
What’s here that you value and want to
protect?
What’s here that you do and/or do not want
more of?
What’s not here but should be?
We’ll be asking these questions at four different stations in the room each with their own focus:
1. PUBLIC PLACES
2. PRIVATE SPACES
3. GETTING AROUND
4. COMMUNITY FEATURES & AMENITIES
