Members of the public are being urged to share their feedback on the proposed improvements.
Mayor of Antrim and Newtownabbey Alderman Stephen Ross said: "This improvement scheme is part of a larger £14m investment, utilising a range of funding streams, designed to regenerate the centre of Glengormley.
"This programme of works will create numerous jobs and aims to transform Glengormley into a more vibrant town centre, providing a more attractive place to work, visit, socialise and live. I urge residents, business owners and community groups to take part in this consultation process and share their comments."
A public consultation event will take place on Wednesday 26 October between 12 noon and 7pm in the Lilian Bland Pavilion, Glengormley. This will provide an opportunity for people to ask the Council and its design team, RPS, any questions they may have about the scheme. A presentation on the proposals will also take place at 5.30pm.
Meanwhile, an online/telephone consultation event will also be held on Thursday 27 October between 12 noon and 7pm.
All feedback should be received no later than Friday 11 November.
