Places

West Berkshire is a beautiful corner of the World and our Place Directorate are largely responsible for keeping our environment and local vicinities at their best.

"West Berkshire's Place Directorate has a great breadth of vibrant diverse services with a shared ambition to ensure West Berkshire's places continue to be a great place to live and work. With our drive to achieve net zero we're focussed on maintaining, improving and growing our places to a standard that protects and enhances the environment, creates job opportunities for all and plans for the new communities of the future. From managing our highway network, to stimulating economic growth, to meeting local housing need, to protecting our countryside and enabling a circular economy we're passionate about West Berkshire and the residents we serve."
