  • Liverpool Development Update
    LIVERPOOL DEVELOPMENT UPDATE October 2015 Welcome Welcome to the latest edition of Liverpool Development Update. If you need an indication of how far Liverpool has come from the dark days of the recession five years ago, you only have to look at the levels of investment pouring into the city today. Both 2014 and 2015 have seen significant jumps in construction activity both in the public and private sectors, with 2016 already looking to be on track to be as productive. I am particularly pleased to see developments creating premises which will allow businesses to start up and grow. Giving existing businesses the tools to help them grow and increase employment opportunities is just as important as creating space for new investments. In Liverpool, we are committed to making both happen. DPD Geopost, Novartis, and Eli Lily are all opening new facilities, while exciting new developments like “The Hangar” and “Invest:Speke” have attracted new tenants in advance of practical completion. With £784million worth of projects having completed since the start of this year, there remains £1.26 billion on site as at October 2015. The largest single project underway is the rebuild of the Royal Liverpool University Hospital, but I am happy to see that the City Centre residential market, so depressed for the last few years, has finally taken off again with several new schemes coming on stream. These will help to further establish the City Centre as a vibrant and colourful residential community. In the neighbourhoods, over £500 million worth of development activity FRONT COVER: is also underway.

  • LIVERPOOL DEVELOPMENT UPDATE October 2019
    LIVERPOOL DEVELOPMENT UPDATE October 2019 Welcome Welcome to the Autumn 2019 edition of the Liverpool Development Update. Our city is going through a period of exciting and rapid change. This is in large part fuelled by the £1bn a year investment drive which began in 2015 and looks set to continue through 2020. As a result we are seeing new homes; leisure, health and education facilities; as well as a mixture of offices/industrial and commercial space all creating new jobs to support this city’s growing economy and rising population. Since the Spring Development Update, much has happened in the city to accelerate the drive toward cleaner air for all and for a reduction in carbon emission to net zero by 2030. These are issues that could have a positive impact on developments across the city and we will look to highlight areas of best practice in future issues. Every scheme has its challenges, but as we develop our economy we have become more aware of the effect we have on the planet. FRONT COVER: Having recently declared a Climate Change Emergency we will be developing a strategy designed to reduce the impact of the city’s regeneration programme, as well as advance measures to develop a 1 low carbon economy. The decade ahead is going to shape the rest of this century in how we tackle climate change – and the only real way to 2 3 achieve that is for everyone to play their part. 1. PROPOSED: ARTIST’S CGI’S OF As we approach the end of the second decade of the 21st century, the PALL MALL EXCHANGE prospects for our city remain positive.

NEXT STEPS APPENDICES 2 PREFACE BY THE METRO MAYOR AND LEAD MEMBER FOR TRANSPORT AND AIR QUALITY In development Metro Mayor Steve Rotheram Cllr Liam Robinson 3 1. INTRODUCTION 1.1 The role of this Combined Authority Transport Plan 1.1.1 This Combined Authority Transport Plan articulates the Liverpool City Region Combined Authority’s (LCRCA’s) vision for transport. It focuses on delivery over the short term. It links closely with the city region’s Transforming Cities Funding programme, which is part of the Strategic Investment Fund. 1.1.2 The plan provides a single source of information on adopted transport policy, based on current plans and priorities, summarised in the Appendix, and updated in light of the Metro Mayor’s vision and the Combined Authority’s investment priorities. It reflects new funding sources (e.g. the Strategic Investment Fund) and also the existence of new structures and priorities such as High Speed 2, Transport for the North and Northern Powerhouse Rail. 1.1.3 This plan also seeks to guide the commissioning of activities and allocation of funds. It acts as a focal point for the future direction of transport development and provides context and backdrop to future funding bids, whether from devolved funds managed by the combined authority itself or from external sources. 1.1.4 It also sets out key priorities that will be worked-up or promoted in the short term but which will be securing funding and be delivered beyond the timeframes of this plan.
