Downtown Plan Survey
The City of London is developing a new Downtown Plan, a roadmap to guide the future growth, design, and experience of our core. As our downtown continues to evolve, it’s important this plan reflects the voices and values of the people who live, work, own businesses, and visit here.

Whether you participate through the survey, share your thoughts in conversation with us or the City of London, your input matters. Feedback is being gathered in multiple ways to ensure a broad range of voices and perspectives help shape the future of downtown.

The survey is open from June 10 to August 22, 2025.
