VU.CITY Dacorum centres around Dacorum and its surrounding area. The quaint town sits in the Dacorum district of Hertfordshire and was developed after the Second World War, with the original part still referred to as the Old Town. It’s renowned for its Magic Roundabout, the pedestrianised Marlowes shopping centre, and the beautiful Jellicoe Watergardens alongside the New Town and the River Gade.
The town’s future vision is bold. Through the Hemel Garden Communities programme, new homes are being delivered, acting as a catalyst for Dacorum’s transformation - building on the New Town’s legacy.
Significant change is expected in the coming years, particularly at major regeneration sites near the Town Centre and Two Waters Area. Dacorum Borough Council has been leveraging VU.CITY to facilitate high-quality developments and smarter planning decisions.
VU.CITY Dacorum enables stakeholders in the built environment to visualise and shape these changes, designing and evaluating proposals within their real-world context - ensuring sensitivity to Dacorum’s diverse urban character, shaped by its evolution and heritage.
