West Sussex County Council is working in partnership with Chichester District Council and Chichester City Council to deliver its strategic ambitions- to improve both mobile and fixed fibre connectivity to businesses, residents and visitors in the city's busy centre. Our aim is to work with partners to co-design and build digital infrastructure that can enable improved 4G and FTTP services in the immediate term as well as future proof for future technologies, thereby enhancing the public realm. High quality digital connectivity will be a key element of the City Centre's Public Regeneration project. The project seeks to leverage the public realm regeneration to drive digital investment by offering a dig once approach to partners under the Council's "OpenDig" principle, supported by the Council's lane rental scheme. The Councils will play a "barrier busting" role to enable telecoms stakeholders to: share the works site; make use of council-owned assets and street furniture; engage with Planning Services and key stakeholders. WSCC's "OpenDig" approach will facilitate joined up working with utilities, street works and Planning Services as part of this project to enable more efficient and cost-effective deployment of infrastructure. Chichester city centre is made up of four main roads in a crossroad formation: • North Street\* • South Street • East Street\* • West Street As part of the wider public realm project, the pedestrianised North\* and East\* streets will be regenerated to provide the community an improved urban environment which will benefit residents, businesses and visitors by providing more attractive, functional and inclusive spaces. This will include (but not be limited to) the resurfacing of pavements, improved street furniture, and a more dynamic street design. This will give a window of opportunity for discussions around the best placement of underground telecoms infrastructure and digitally enabled street furniture which will best serve the ambitions of the Council for its residents and businesses. More information will be made available at the supplier 1-2-1 sessions. Please see the attached RFI document for full information and to register for the supplier engagement sessions.
