St George’s Planning Framework
Main contract details
This project represents a unique opportunity to assist the three partners in re-shaping this key gateway site with rich historical character through identifying strategic and detailed interventions, including design codes that put quality of place at its heart, with culture, connectivity, sustainability and wellbeing at the forefront. It will build upon an unpublished draft visioning strategy undertaken in 2022.
The ambition is for a detailed Planning Policy and Delivery framework that ensures quality placemaking in the context of driving continued regeneration, maximising investment opportunities, enhancement of environmental quality and sustainability. It broad terms it should:
- Identify and propose interventions to unlock and maximise the value of potential development sites and land use strategy in the context of delivering quality of place;
- Set design codes for the area; character areas; and sites including appropriate use and design/place requirements which respond to unique character and context;
- Set out potential interventions for the creative reuse of derelict or under used buildings;
- Set out detailed public realm and landscape interventions, with a clear strategy for reconnecting this part of the city centre with an emphasis on improved walkability, active travel, legibility and permeability, connecting this area and north Liverpool into the city centre.
- Propose deliverable transport improvements and interventions in the context of an emerging city centre mobility strategy (Urban Mobility and Public Spaces Strategy), and a drive towards active travel and net zero and reduce severance in the area.
- Promote introduction of green space for enhanced biodiversity, climate mitigation, improved placemaking, creating of micro-climates and capture of surface water run-off.
