Description

Fareham Borough Council's 5-year festive lighting contract is due to expire.
The current scheme includes star column motifs, light curtains, column wraps and two dressed Christmas trees, one under the Performance Podium and the other, outside Westbury Manor Museum.
The current scheme covers key town centre areas including, West Street and its Performance Podium, Vannes Parade, Harper Way, Station Roundabout, Westbury Manor Museum and High Street trees, and following some feedback from local businesses, the scheme may need to be extended to include the Western end of West Street towards Station Roundabout. Please see the map published to assist with the locations of lights/trees.
It is also important to note, that the Council has recently developed a Climate Change Action Plan and therefore consideration will need to be given as to how the next festive lighting scheme can be more environmentally friendly, while not detracting from the traditional Christmas display that Fareham residents and businesses now expect to see.
