The formal public engagement process is an important part of developing the project, and we encourage your involvement. We’re working with local communities and stakeholders to gather feedback, which will help us refine the project plans and final designs.
This step is essential to ensure the project meets all environmental, social, and legal requirements. As we move forward during this phase and into the detailed design, construction, and commissioning phases, we will continue to communicate openly with the community and stakeholders and follow all necessary guidelines to ensure project success.
The Aarhus Convention protects every person’s right to live in a healthy environment and it guarantees the public three key rights on environmental issues:
Access to information - the right to access environmental information that is held by public authorities.
Public participation - the right to participate in environmental decision-making.
Access to justice - the right of access to justice.
Public Participation refers to the various mechanisms which provide opportunities for the public to become informed and express opinion.
A comprehensive programme of public participation events is planned for Autumn 2024 and will be advertised extensively. See Project Updates
As part of our approach, we are inviting feedback from the public and other stakeholders.
