A monumental 20-year regeneration programme is already underway and will bring further growth and improvements to Medway up until 2035.
Our vision aims to provide economic and housing opportunities, and it is no surprise that the towns of Chatham, Strood, Gillingham, Rainham and Rochester are already acting as a magnet for a diverse range of businesses, property hunters and investors.
Largest regeneration zone within the Thames Gateway
Medway boasts the biggest regeneration zone within the Thames Gateway and is set to become the most successful area of economic regeneration in the south-east.
By 2035 Medway will become a leading waterfront university city. It is anticipated that the revitalised urban centres and riverfront developments will bring thousands of new people to Medway – with the population forecast to grow to 330,000.
Medway’s ambitious projects have secured significant government funding and there is potential for private sector investment.
Vibrant regeneration projects
Recognising that Medway is growing and that it has the potential to give its residents, businesses and entrepreneurs an enviable, prosperous future, is driving our dynamic 20-year regeneration programme.
A major regeneration programme is already transforming Medway’s landscape, bringing new homes and significant employment space, as well as a range of family facilities to enjoy.
