It has a very active Residents Association, started by Barry Kirby and Clive Barton in June 2008, that holds public meetings, community fun days and other local events, and lobbies local agencies and organisations involved in the development, on behalf of residents.[5][6]
Kingsway comes under the Parish of Quedgeley, and is in the City Council Ward of Quedgeley Fieldcourt. For the County Council purposes it is part of the new ward of Grange and Kingsway.
