OUR AMBITION
Through the investment and transformative projects, King’s Lynn will be a better connected town, where businesses and people are inspired and supported to achieve their ambitions, and where there is more for everyone who comes into the town to enjoy and experience.
This is backed with significant Government funding, notably £25M from the Towns Fund through a Town Deal, £24M from the Levelling Up Fund for active travel projects, and the £20M Pride in Place Programme (formerly Plan for Neighbourhoods) funding.
