4 01 Introduction

5 6 01

1.1 Introduction This Design and Access Statement has been prepared by IDPartnership on behalf of Keepmoat Homes & Cussins Ltd to accompany a hybrid planning application for residential development at Holborn Riverside, . These proposals form the next step from the successful tender response prepared as part of the wider exploratory work IDPartnership has undertaken to demonstrate the kind of place Holborn Riverside could become over a 10 year period, setting out a vision and overall regeneration strategy for the neighbourhood and surrounding area. The masterplan work is underpinned by the following principles:

• Achieving transformational change of a key riverside brownfield site • Offering a mix of different types and tenures of homes which can attract a range of households • Ensuring areas of significant housing redevelopment are brought forward alongside improvement in the environmental quality of surrounding areas to support the overall success of redevelopment • Deliver an economic impact in the area and across the neighbourhood • Integrates into its surroundings by reinforcing existing connections and creating new ones, whilst also respecting existing building and land uses around the development site The design proposals are inspired by high quality housing set within a sequence of hard and soft landscaped spaces that cohesively create a sense of place and ownership within an urban riverside setting.

1.2 Keepmoat Homes & Cussins Ltd

The partnership has exceptional knowledge and experience of the North East housing market and have a demonstrable track record of successfully delivering high quality new homes across the region. Both Keepmoat and Cussins have tangible experience of the local housing market in South Shields through our developments at The Wynde, Trinity South, Market Dock and Bolingbroke Street. In addition, Cussins have a strong track record of delivering high quality riverside housing at Royal Quays and Dunston Riverside in Gateshead. In recent years, Keepmoat have consistently achieved annual sales in excess of 500 homes in the North East and nationally are a Top 10 Housebuilder, whilst Cussins’ have grown rapidly over the past three years with sales increasing by 85% over that period to 157 sales in 2019. Cussins’ recent growth has been recognised by a number of business awards – most recently they were awarded 3rd place in the Newcastle Journals’s Fastest 50 Awards “large company” category. This demonstrates the partnership’s commitment and ability to design and deliver high quality homes and therefore we believe we are well placed to meet the Council’s accelerated delivery objectives for Holborn Riverside. We have assembled an extremely experienced, award-winning consultancy team with a proven track record of delivering innovative, complex, large scale development projects to programme. We believe the location and scale of Holborn Riverside provide an exciting opportunity to deliver truly transformational regeneration by creating a distinctive and sustainable residential neighbourhood that leaves a lasting legacy and enhances South Shields as a place to live and work.

2.1 Site Location

The Holborn site is located close to the mouth of the in a prominent riverside location adjacent to Commercial Road in South Shields. It covers an area of 7.31 hectares covering a large area of brownfield land which has a historic association with the river through it’s previous graving dock and port uses. The wider study area is significant in terms of size and it’s strategic relationship with the town centre. It forms a major regeneration opportunity in terms of opening up access to the waterfront and linking new development with recent developments such as ‘The Word’ , The National Centre for the Written Word adjacent to the town square, BT building at Harton Quay and new housing at Trinity South to the south east.

2.2 Site Description

The surrounding existing land use pattern varies considerably. Within the site much of the land is unoccupied brownfield semi derelict land. The Trimmers Arms is the only remaining functioning building immediately adjacent the site. Moving northwards the Customs House provides a cultural resource and Harton Quays Park an important public space which connects with the ferry landing and town centre. East of Commercial Road is the Magistrates Court and Northumbria Police Building, a number of unattractive retail Commercial Road with Trimmers Arms warehouse units sit to the south. Southwards Windmill Hill forms an area of post war social housing and more recent residential development located around Riverside Court. Along the riverside is Port of Tyne, a large industrial area comprising of a deep sea port handling a large variety of cargo. The Holborn site has the potential to integrate surrounding land uses with new development to create a mixed neighbourhood accommodating both commercial office development alongside new housing. The Holborn site beyond is physically separated from the surrounding area and does not allow for public access. Within the site the disused docks are important landmarks visible from the river. The Law Courts and Trimmers Arms on Commercial Road are less distinguished in terms of townscape qualities but are important focal points. South Tynside Magistrates Court

2.3 Key Landmarks and Public Spaces

Within the wider area are a series of important public spaces and local landmarks. The plan opposite identifies these spaces and landmarks. South Shields Metro is an important arrival point on King Street. The Market Square and the recently built ‘Word’ to the west act as magnets pulling people towards the water’s edge. Harton Quays Park and the BT building provide the physical connection to the water’s edge. The Customs House and Mill Dam conservation area provide an attractive townscape and distinctive landmark buildings that at present represent the end stop in terms of accessibility to the waterfront. The Holborn site beyond is physically separated from the Shields Ferry link to North Shields surrounding area and does not allow for public access. Within the site the disused docks are important landmarks visible from the river. The Law Courts and Trimmers Arms on Commercial Road are less distinguished in terms of townscape qualities but are important focal points.

2.5 Site History

An in depth understanding of the historical context of a place is essential, in order to establish how and why its physical structure has evolved over time. Holborn Riverside is a distinctive and unique location within the history and heritage of South Tyneside. The glassworks, ballast hills and refitting quay have all played a unique part in South Tyneside. South Shields, Jarrow and Hebburn grew rapidly during Victorian times and the industrial revolution with the introduction of coal mining, ship building and engineering. This legacy has created a mix of disused industrial land, the old berths at the riverside and poor quality housing. South Shields’ riverside and High Shields is now starting to resurrect itself with a riverside park, offices and the Customs House which houses a theatre, cinema, gallery and bar. Further south there are several areas of informal space that have resulted from site clearance, for example the south side of Laygate Street. The historic mapping opposite shows how the Holborn Riverside area has evolved over time with the historic connections to the riverside gradually being eroded. The development proposals seek to draw upon the rich industrial maritime heritage of the area. The graving docks are noted as being of particular historic interest and are locally listed by South Tyneside Council. The docks are integral to influencing the Historic aerial image of Holborn’s graving docks masterplan design solution. The masterplan framework proposes to maintain and re-establish the historic connection between the Historic aerial image of Holborn Riverside riverside and surrounding area.

2.6 Public Transport The Holborn site is located close to Commercial Road and south Currently the Holborn site acts as a barrier to the riverside and is of Harton Quays and Riverside Park. It benefits from its close physically separated from the surrounding area. This proposal proximity to the town centre and is widely accessible.

3.1 The Vision for Holborn Riverside

This vision for Holborn Riverside is underpinned by six priority themes which aim to promote the development of a sustainable community. These are:

A Neighbourhood with a Special Identity Inventive, attractive and distinctive from other recent housing development in South Shields. Utilise existing historic features to create a locally inspired neighbourhood.

Exploiting the Riverside Location Design to optimise outstanding river views and accessibility to the waters edge.

A Neighbourhood for All Ages High density form, but with generous internal and external space with a mix of typologies to provide a multi-generational environment.

A Sustainable Neighbourhood Ensuring social, economic and environmental benefits.

Delivering Affordable Homes A committment to delivering high quality affordable homes, pepper-potted throughout the scheme

A Connected Neighbourhood Good connections to local facilities and the Town Centre, fostering a sense of community.

3.2 Site Constraints

The existing site is to be re-profiled and cleared to leave a 1:30 slope which falls towards the river. A critical aspect of the delivery strategy is the need for early engagement and a joined up approach with the Council, Mott Macdonald and the NHBC in respect of the Enabling Works, to ensure the final specification of the Enabling Works will facilitate delivery of the Potential location of pumping station and 15m stand off development proposals. It is our understanding that these remedial works are subject to a seperate application by South Tyneside Council and do not form part of this application.

N 4.1 Quantum of Accommodation

The masterplan comprises, as part of this hybrid planning application, approximately 350 residential units overall within 7.31 hectares of land. The outline element of this application will Potential Future Commercial Area accommodate approximately 302 units. The majority of unit’s proposed on the site will family be housing with gardens or generous outdoor terraces. The proposed mix results from a desire to provide a wider variety of homes of different types and sizes, ranging from family homes to 1 and 2 bedroom apartments. The variety will assist in the creation of a vibrant and sustainable new riverside neighbourhood. See table below for indicative quantum of accommodation. For the purposes of this document all density calculations are approximate and accord with the indicative phasing plan.

Indicative Phasing Plan 4.2 Density

The distribution of accommodation within the masterplan framework has been considered carefully to respond to the site’s topography, microclimate and relate to the proposed urban design strategy. N The perimeter of the site adjacent the new promenade will be edged with apartment buildings that provide a strong urban frontage to the street behind and an animated backdrop to the dockside. The apartment buildings act as a higher density ‘spine’ to the promenade and provide key markers and wayfinding points across Potential Future Commercial Area the site to assist with legibility and connectivity. The density reduces slightly around the existing graving docks to the south whereby family housing will be re-introduced. The provision of new central boulevard road, within the heart of the site, will provide much needed vehicular access, albeit with reduced speeds and visibility splays, and therefore it is anticiplated densities will rise to frame this central route and contain key spaces along its length. The existing Commercial Road is seen as a key distributor route into South Shields and therefore once again densities will increase to provide a strong residential frontage.

4.3 Illustrative Masterplan

Our approach to the site has been to consider how the layout can maximise pedestrian permeability and create a network for shared surface streets giving priority to pedestrians and cyclists. The masterplan proposes a grid like structure with development blocks more formally arranged closer to Commercial Road with a more irregular arrangement that either follows the retained Incidental space to key points within the graving dock or is designed to avoid existing dock walls. masterplan To avoid the grid like structure creating long straight roads that do not assist with reducing vehicular speeds various measures will be introduced which have a dual purpose including: • Chicane arrangements which ensure vertical deflection and reduce vehicular speed • The chicane arrangement allows for tree planting either side to soften the visual impact of parked cars • Introduction of shared surface streets with contrasting surface materials to distinguish between the function and hierarchy of streets • Build outs at appropriate pinch points to reduce vehicular speeds and provide the opportunity for tree planting The riverside context of Holborn and framing of key views across the River Tyne has informed the layout and orientation of streets, forming strategic routes and connections for walking and cycling, together with the creation of shelter and microclimate. A key feature of the proposed enabling works is a reprofiling of the site to create a gradually sloping landscape towards the River Tyne, lifting the development area out of the flood plain. Rear lanes contain car parking leaving This engineered landform offers the opportunity to integrate a primary frontages uncluttered tiered approach, not only providing layered views to the river for residents, but also using the levels to inform Holborn’s surface drainage strategy would use linked linear raingardens and filter drains, alongside downstream defenders, that could provide a sustainable yet robust solution to slowing surface water flows and Key buildings on corners helping to improve outflow water quality. The proposed landform also creates steeper 1 in 3 landscape embankments to the retained graving docks at Middle Docks and to Customs House to the north of the development. These gradients have been used productively within the design to create valuable coastal habitat creation areas incorporating ‘bug hotel’, dry cavities and native plant species, to help enrich biodiversity and create opportunities for community interaction with the local Housing framing incidental space and landscaping flora and fauna.

N 4.4 Urban Design Framework

The grid structure of the Holborn Riverside masterplan also creates the opportunity to introduce a sequence of green spaces and green routes using tree planting to reinforce these routes. The aim is Potential Future Commercial Area to create a boulevard route running through the spine of the site linking the Laygate area with the commercial area. Squares, key nodal points and incidental space through the masterplan provide a sequence of spaces that are varied and provide the opportunity for soft landscaping alongside high quality surface materials to encourage low vehicle speeds and encourage streets and squares as social spaces. The aim is to create a neighbourhood where children can safely use green spaces outside their home. Within the blocks adjacent to Commercial Road the back lane streets have been conceived as ‘play streets’ and the intention is to incorporate playful objects. Interlinked neighbourhood ‘Coves’ will offer overlooked play spaces, creating sub-character areas particular to development blocks. This design strategy provides the opportunity to enhance some routes with incidental ‘natural’ play items for opportunistic ‘play- Predominantly 3-5 storey along-the-way’. This would encourage fun and informal exercise Predominantly 2.5 / 3 storey opportunities suitable for people of all ages.

4.5 Scale of Development Indicative Storey Height Plan The scale and massing of the new built form responds to context and reinforces the hierarchy of streets and spaces. Contextually the majority of the buildings within the application are 2 to 5 storey houses or apartments, which is in keeping with its riverside location and immediate context. For example the Customs House and Mill Dam area predominantly consist of 3 to 4 storey terraced buildings, whilst Commercial Road itself has larger commercial buildings and the Magistrates’ Court which suggest higher density may be appropriate in this location.

4.6 Movement Framework

The key design intention is to create an inclusive, walkable ‘environment for all’ that is easily navigable and capitalises on the site’s features and connections to local landmarks, neighbourhoods and local green spaces. The design adopts a hierarchical approach to street design and wayfinding in order that Holborn is distinctive and recognisable to all users with varying levels of engagement. Accessibility for all ages and abilities will be at the heart of the design proposals, with regular seating opportunities included to 5.5 provide confidence to less able walkers to explore the site. Spine Road /5.5 Boulevard Landmark destination spaces will be designed to encourage loop walks with points of interest. This will ensure that users of the external environment of Holborn always have a recognisable destination in sight, reinforcing the sense of place for residents whilst enabling those visiting or accessing the Promenade to easily navigate the development. Key points of connection are at Laygate to the south, Harton Gate and Hiring Square to the north, and along Commercial Road to the east, have been designed to specifically respond to local character Secondary Route / Avenue and heritage. They create unique and memorable gateways visible from within and outwith Holborn while functioning as public spaces, framing key views across the Tyne and ensuring local neighbourhoods are well connected. The ‘desire lines’ established from Trinity towards the river edge provide strong connections to the proposed promenade along the riverside. Existing routeways will connect into this new framework of roads and pathways. Care has been taken to accommodate pedestrians and cyclists, and wherever necessary separate these areas of public access from Tertiary Street / Lane adjoining residential space by means of change in level, a technique which the team has successfully used at Royal Quays on the Indicative road hierarchy sections northern bank of the Tyne. Pedestrian routes are well delineated, and traffic calmed areas encourage and support pedestrian and cycle traffic. Routeways are logical, direct, accessible and free from barriers. Traffic calming is incorporated into the scheme from the entry point on the main road. Within the scheme, inward looking cul-de-sacs have been avoided, and routeways created to enable local people to walk through the development and navigate the scheme with ease. This enhanced walkability will make a major contribution to passive surveillance and security within the area. The scheme creates connections that are attractive, well lit, direct, and easy to navigate. Particular attention has been given to the ways in which the scheme will connect with the Customs House and environs.

4.7 Parking Strategy The masterplan recognises the close proximity of the site to the town centre and this is reflected in the proposed parking and visitor parking ratio’s across the site. It is suggested that a ratio of 1 in 5 visitor parking spaces would be appropriate given that a key aspect of the development would be to encourage and faciltate Parking to front sustainable modes of transport. A mixture of parking solutions are proposed across the site including on street parking to the front of properties, parking to the rear of properties, and smaller courtyard parking areas. Parking courtyards generally serve the apartment blocks located adjacent to the quayside. These are arranged in several courtyard areas near the apartment block. Runs of parking bays are broken with planting and it is proposed to utilise variation in surface materials to soften these spaces. Parking in front to curtilage On street parking serving the housing blocks is configured primarily as parallel parking usually in runs of 4 bays broken with landscaping to soften street scenes. Parallel on street parking is also used where chicanes are introduced. In some instances for example along Laygate, parking is proposed in curtilage but again Minimise parking conflict wiith broken at regular intervals with landscaping. Commercial area By positioning some parking within perimeter blocks to the rear of properties the masterplan allows for buildings to be positioned at the back of footway to create strong street frontages uninterrupted by parking. Consideration has been given to potential conflict of the proposed adjacent 200,000 sq ft commercial development. The masterplan Parking within rear ‘lanes’ layout provides a direct vehicular access from Commercial Road to the office area and all parking serving the office blocks will be contained within courtyards within the office zone. There is no parking on the northern side of the route from Commercial Road to the quayside on the office side of the street, to discourage on-street parking. Tree planting on this side will ensure a physical means to prevent car parking outside the office area. In summary the masterplan approach is to integrate car parking with the housing development breaking up runs of parking and introducing soft landscaping to mitigate against the visual impact of parked cars. Parking courtyards serve apartment blocks and Sketch showing various parking methods have been positioned away from the quayside to minimise their impact.

Our delivery strategy is underpinned by the team’s wealth of Our delivery approach is also informed by a thorough assessment experience in successfully delivering complex brownfield housing- of the technical information supplied with the ITT and identifying led regeneration schemes across the north east. The team has the robust technical solutions, as far as possible, based on the current necessary skill set to deliver a stunning place-making project of level of site information. And also by Keepmoat’s and Cussins’ high quality design that optimises the site’s prominent riverside extensive knowledge and experience of the South Shields housing location on the fringe of the town centre. It contains highly market through schemes at Market Dock, Bolingbroke Street, qualified engineering professionals to address the technical The Wynde and Trinity South. Furthermore, the constraints constraints of the site, as well as experienced legal representation and challenges associated with riverside development are well to resolve any title and legal issues. understood by Cussins through their developments not just at Market Dock but also at Royal Quays and Dunston Riverside in A critical aspect of our delivery strategy is the need for early Gateshead. engagement and a joined up approach with the Council, Mott Macdonald and the NHBC in respect of the Enabling Works, to ensure the final specification of the Enabling Works will facilitate delivery of our development proposals.

5.1 Character Areas

The unique topography and location of the site divides naturally into four distinct neighbourhoods or ‘character areas’. Although each character area has a blend of housing typologies and landscape treatment which relates specifically to its location, they have been considered cohesively to provide a sense of place directly linked to the history of the site. The following descriptions are intended to provide an indicative representation of the individual character areas and should be read in conjunction with the landscape design section.

5.2 Middle Docks

This area of the masterplan provides the primary riverside frontage to the proposed development. A strong ‘fractured’ frontage to the existing graving docks and proposed promenade area allow both formal and glimpsed views of the River Tyne and beyond. The unique site context and constraints provide opportunties to create a distinct ‘new’ neighbourhood that has been heavily influenced by its industrial past. As a result both thoughtful and inventive design proposals have been implemented within the buildings, private spaces, and public realm areas. A new promenade will allow pedestrian and cycle access to the waters edge, with the intention that some time in the future this can provide connectivity north, from the existing graving docks, towards the Customs House, Harton Quay and South Shields town centre beyond.

Behind the ‘fractured’ frontage of the promenade there is proposals to have a more intimate, semi-public internal courtyard space (The Cove) which will provide respite and shelter from the wind swept elements of the waters edge. Here there is more human scale to the built form, acknowledging that although views are glimpsed, rather than panoramic, the introduction of hard and soft landscaped spaces provide relief to these internal units. Longevity of performance and ease of management have informed the materials palette and design of the streets and spaces, using a restricted and robust overall palette matrix and allowing some material variation in each character area to produce a cohesive environment with distinctive places. The palette, both hard and soft, will be selected to provide a dockside/warehouse character within a semi-coastal location which links and complements the design and materials used at Harton Quays.

The remediated site levels carry this new development area down to the river edge in a gradual slope; utilising simple, rectilinear street patterns which reference the classic Victorian and Georgian relationships of historic South Shields Riverside. This creates a streetscape that turns corners well, creating street frontages that ensure both elevations seen from the street have windows to them, rather than offering blank walls. Windows are designed to maximise surveillance, and bring generous amounts of natural lighting into peoples’ homes. These techniques give rise to a hierarchy of streets which offers good visual enclosure, and recreates the well-proportioned height to width ratios of this historic area.

6.1 Landscape and Green Infratructure Framework

Key public realm areas have been identified to provide nodal points, encouraging exploration, appreciation and walkability. Each space will have a distinctive character to provide a destination point, drawing upon historic references and natural assets such as the river views to inform the character and sense of place. Primary public spaces at Whitehill View, Quay Point, Harton Gate, Hiring Square and Commercial Road will serve as landmarks while embodying the rich narrative of the site. Variation in character, feature and scale with provision of frequent resting points will attract users of all ages to the spaces designed for orientation, gathering, interpretation and views, with links to strategic routes to encourage informal exercise and opportunities for wellbeing and A. Coastal Dry Slope Habitat relaxation. The soft landscape palette will respond to the predominant east- west salt-laden winds by using resilient species, and including coastal habitat creation on embankments to support local biodiversity objectives. Tree planting will be carefully located in multi-species clusters to create micro shelter areas, and will avoid single species tree boulevard patterns likely to suffer in this locality. The proposed materiality of external spaces at Holborn draws on the existing landscape features of Holborn and tells a story of its maritime past. The imposing and emotive concrete graving docks, steel mooring bollards, and remnant timber shoring posts will inform an external environment responding to this character with a clear predominance of hard features over soft. The palette includes poured concrete surfacing, steel trim, concrete block surfacing continuing the palette of Harton Quays. Solid timber benches using reclaimed timber sourced from remnant dock deconstruction projects, and reclamation of the existing steel mooring bollards painted with the distinctive Holborn colour palette would offer B. Raingarden Mix a sustainable and cost-effective approach to development that would reinforce Holborn’s distinctive character and identity. For further indicative landscape proposals please refer to the landscape architects plans which will accompany this application.

6.2 Whitehill View

Whitehill View could provide a place for health, for habitat and for home. With panoramic views across the Tyne to the historic Whitehill Point at North Shields the higher level at Whitehill View could provide iconic photo opportunities for visitors to Holborn. The adjusted levels at the site present a unique opportunity for a multi-purpose embankment leading down to the characterful historic graving docks. The vast majority of the embankment could restrict public access in order to create a space for coastal habitat, a mosaic of salt tolerant low maintenance grasses and shrubs would be interlaced with smaller areas of low nutrient bare ground and boulder to allow for pockets of natural regeneration.

6.3 Quay Point and Promenade

An iconic landmark space for Holborn. Vast space and industry scale features provide a Public Realm that could accommodate festivals and events. An urban waterscape whose materiality responds to the site’s shipbuilding heritage and physically realizes the former graving dock in the surface treatments and features. Division by a freestanding bespoke concrete wall, its planted face serving as a micro habitat, would continue the treatment of the award winning Harton Quays and provide a visual continuity from North Shields quay. The feature lighting could provide a focal point and the verticality of these features would talk to the iconic ‘Tyne Anew’ by Mark di Suvero across the River Tyne.

Indicative images of Quay Point and Promenade showing design intent

55 06

6.4 Hiring Square

Hiring Square could provide a meeting point and vital connectivity between the new residential and commercial quarters and the retail quarter at Mill Hill to the north of the site. On the periphery of the Mill Dam Conservation Area, Hiring Square would provide a point of orientation and pedestrian linkage to cultural hotspots such as Customs House and The Word. Materiality would respond to the treatment of Quay Point but be of a more human scale. The Hiring Post providing historic interpretation of the former gas lamp at which prospective workers would assemble to be selected for working teams - a gateway to the world.

6.5 Harton Gate

Harton Gate draws on the historic Salt Pans at Holborn, an industry that preceded Holborn’s ship repair works and for which South Shields was infamous. The Salt Cubes form reflects the formation of salt crustals and would function as informal multi- use structures for play and for rest providing engagement and interpretation opportunities for multi-generational users.

This intention is for this space to provide a transition point that enables pedestrian and cycle connectivity from the Holborn Promenade to the Customs House and Harton Quays area. This pedestrian link itself, however, does not form part of this application.

7.1 Design Proposals

Phase One sits wthin the southern most part of the proposed Holborn Riverside masterplan and provides 48 units. The proposed development sits within close proximity to those existing residents along Commercial Road and this relationship has been respected in the proposals. The noth-east corner of Phase One will act as a key facade when viewed from Laygate, whilst this continued ‘ribbon’ frontage to the north will provide enclosure to the existing graving docks. The perimeter of the development will provide a mixture of 2, 2.5 and 3 storey dwellings to provide interest in the streetscene whilst enabling panaramic views towards the docks and the River Tyne beyond. The centre of the site will enable the intervention of a informal green space which will deliver a focal point from the pedestrian and vehicular access to the north. The informal, incidental green will provide respite from the elements before encouraging connectivity into the existing pedestrian footpath that links to Commercial Concept Plan Road to the south.

The scheme incorporates 15% affordable housing on Phase One. In this phase of development there are 8 two bed houses. The affordable homes are pepper-potted throughout each phase to ensure a “tenure blind” development. The affordable homes have been designed to be NDSS compliant, thereby creating generously-spaced, flexible homes capable of adaptation as residents’ needs change over their lifetime; essentially “future proofed” living to enable residents to “age in place”.

7.6 Character Area - Laygate West

This part of the masterplan sits within the Laygate West area of the wider Holborn Riverside masterplan. Key to the layouts success in this area is the northern frontage. This elevation will be enhanced to justify its location as the ‘end stop’ to the existing graving docks. Town house dwellings will frame the dockside and provide views across the River. The internal streets within this character area more sympathetic to the existing housing stock along Commercial Road. More traditional forms are introduced, although the colour palette and materials are respected throughout.

7.9 Parking and Refuse Strategy

Private parking, where appropriate, is provided in curtilage in order to minimise the visual impact of the car and to de-congest the road network. Visitor parking is provided in easy to locate locations adjacent to adopted highways. Privacy and security are major concerns within housing design and incorporating the car within a streetscape, without visual domination, is a key challenge of the proposals. A variety of techniques for providing parking have been used on this scheme so as to provide variety to the streetscene, and to minimise the impact of cars in the public realm. • On plot: driveway • On plot: side parking • Off plot parking space

Visitor parking will be provided at a ratio of 1 in 5 across the Phase Outline Planning Application Area One development. All units will have secure refuse storage to the private back garden space and will accessed via a footpath.

7.10 Summary

We are committed to delivering an outstanding riverside residential neighbourhood. We have responded to the Council’s design aspirations to create a bespoke design solution that understand the site’s context, opportunities and constraints. A key objective has been to devise a masterplan that exploits the site’s riverside and edge of town centre location and which is fully integrated with the wider area.
