The final designs for Montague Place have been revealed, detailing its transformation into a vibrant green space linking the town to the sea, thanks to feedback from residents and community groups in Worthing.
A lively social space will be created at the north end of the gardens, with residents and visitors welcomed by a stand-out Worthing place sign, a green living wall and a performance area.
Plans for the site also include the replacement of tarmac with attractive and accessible paving, 30 new trees, drought-resistant planting, a lawn area and sociable seating areas for residents to connect with each other and with nature.
Cafe culture will be kept alive, with dedicated spaces for businesses to have outdoor seating. A new hospitality kiosk will be built for vendors to serve coffee or ice-cream from.
Younger children will benefit from a new play area that celebrates Worthing’s seaside heritage and highlights kelp restoration. There will be information boards on the work to restore natural kelp forests as well as tactile fixed play equipment that lets children climb freely and use their imagination.
Work on the new green space is due to start in the autumn and will be completed in phases over a 15-18 month period.
