Masterplans
The District Council is undertaking a series of studies to develop masterplans for the City of Ely, and the market towns of Soham and Littleport, to help manage the rapid population and housing growth that is taking place in these areas.
A range of public activities and events for everyone to help plan for Ely's future are being planned to allow as many people as possible to be involved.
