We can't keep procrastinating with projects 'until we get our road network sorted' or quite frankly, nothing will ever get done.
The entire fabric of our society has received a serious jolt from this pandemic, and Hereford will come out the other end a different place from the one which entered it, where we will increasingly question 'what's really important' and 'what sort of place do we really want Hereford to evolve into, in years to come. For me, celebrating the history, the people, arts & culture that have made Herefordshire what it is today, through a project of this magnitude is bold and visionary. Utilising and enhancing our architectural assets to promote community cohesion and improve quality of life for local people, such as the Castle Green Pavillion scheme is also to be applauded. If projects such as these get the green light, they will leave a wonderful legacy for the next generation.
