  • Gloucester Lighting Strategy
    Gloucester City Council Gloucester Lighting Strategy 2008 Foreword It is with great pleasure that we introduce this Lighting Strategy on behalf of Gloucester City Council. The City has a unique heritage with over 700 Listed Buildings dating from the Medieval to the present day, which are largely concentrated within the city centre. The initial preparation of a draft lighting strategy by Gloucester City Council underlined the importance of using improved lighting in the city centre as a way of enhancing our night-time economy. This was borne out when the results of our annual “People’s Budget” vote strongly found in favour of Councillor Paul James using that budget for the lighting of a number of historic buildings within the central area. Among the fi rst buildings to benefi t from this will be The Guildhall, the Cathedral Tower, St Oswald’s Priory and Bishop Hooper’s Monument. Together they will serve to show what can be achieved by imaginative but complementary architectural lighting schemes in transforming a building and its surroundings. This document sets out the results of close working between the City Council and its lighting consultants, Balfour Beatty Infrastructure Services Ltd, as well as the Gloucester Heritage Urban Regeneration Company and Gloucestershire County Council. We are confi dent that the proposals emerging Councillor Steve Morgan from this document will lead to a transformation in how the city looks at night and the perception Gloucester Lighting Strategy 2008 of a safe and friendly environment. It will also lead to a change in how the city is used at night Published January 2008 by Balfour Beatty in association with Gloucester City Council with lighting areas becoming visitor attractions in their own right, and assisting in the further © Copyright Gloucester City Council 2008 development of the City’s evening economy.
