While we understand there may be an eagerness to see these projects come to life, it is important to note they will take several years to complete. There’s a lot of work going on in the background though.
Public Consultation
We are now consulting on the next phase of our development plans. All the feedback received during the consultation will help us shape planning applications being submitted to Portsmouth City Council.
Anyone can share their views, including students, staff and local residents. Your input is invaluable in helping us create a vibrant and inclusive campus for all.
Any comments or feedback should be received by midnight on Sunday 03 March 2024.
Pre-Planning Stage
We are currently in the pre-planning stage of our Estates Masterplan, which involves extensive research, feasibility studies and consultation with stakeholders, including Portsmouth City Council. We anticipate that this stage will span the next few months, after which we will move forward to the detailed planning and implementation phase.
We understand the lack of visible progress may be frustrating, but we must ensure we follow all necessary processes and procedures.
