Status Director .......... Date November 2014 For and on behalf of GVA Grimley Ltd November 2014 I gva.co.uk HARTLEPOOL BOROUGH COUNCIL RETAIL STUDY 1. INTRODUCTION 1.1 GVA has been appointed by Hartlepool Borough Council to lead a consultancy team in the preparation of a Regeneration Masterplan for Hartlepool. The Masterplan is to provide a long-term vision for the future development and regeneration of the Hartlepool town centre and Waterfront Marina area. 1.2 A key element of the Regeneration Masterplan is the preparation of a Retail Revival Strategy, which will set out a comprehensive strategy and action plan for improving retail opportunities in the town centre. 1.3 The Council is also at an early stage in preparing a new replacement Local Plan. This retail study therefore provides an up-to-date and robust evidence base to underpin the development of new retail policies (frontages, boundary designations etc.) and site-specific allocations. 1.4 In summary, the terms of the study are as follows: To understand current shopping (on convenience and comparison retail goods1) and leisure visitation patterns across the borough and in adjoining areas through commissioning a new up-to-date household telephone survey. To provide a comparative assessment of changes in shopping patterns, market share and overall performance against the 2009 Hartlepool Retail Study findings. Provide a comparative review of the vitality and viability of Hartlepool town centre through completing new floorspace / fascia surveys to establish changes in representation and vacancy within the centre. To assess the future quantitative capacity and qualitative need for additional retail floorspace, having regard to new and planned developments / commitments within the borough and wider sub-region. To provide strategic advice on the overall future retail need to inform the Retail Revival Strategy and Regeneration Masterplan exercises. 1.5 The study is informed by a number of detailed independent survey exercises, designed in conjunction with the Borough Council, including: 1 Convenience goods comprises food and non-alcoholic beverages, tobacco, alcoholic beverages, newspapers and periodicals and non-durable household goods. Comparison goods comprises any other goods, including clothing, shoes, furniture, household appliances, tools, medical goods, games and toys, books and stationery, jewellery and other personal effects. November 2014 I gva.co.uk 1 HARTLEPOOL BOROUGH COUNCIL RETAIL STUDY Floorspace / Use Survey; detailed surveys of Hartlepool town centre and local centres within the borough to establish the current amount and split of various types of floorspace (convenience, comparison, services and vacancies). Household Telephone Survey; a detailed survey establishing where residents within the borough and adjacent areas (Peterlee and Billingham) travel to for convenience and non-food shopping activities as well as leisure. The survey informs the quantitative component of the study, identifying the current market share performance of town centre, individual stores and retail park destinations. In-Centre Shopper Survey; a full shopper survey within the town centre to determine the profile of visitors and shoppers; the strengths and weaknesses of the centre in terms of the existing retail offer, wider facilities and physical environment; patterns of usage of the centre (i.e. frequency of visits, modal split, dwell times); and suggested qualitative improvements which would persuade shoppers to visit the centre more frequently or stay for longer. Retailer Business Survey; surveys circulated to all retailers within the town centre2 to establish current trading performance; the relative strength and weaknesses of the centre; and specific initiatives that could be delivered to improve the performance and the overall attractiveness of the centre. 1.6 The results of the survey exercises are drawn together to provide a set of robust recommendations to enable the Council to proactively plan for future development. The study conclusions represent a ‘point-in-time’ assessment of performance and opportunity and will inform the Retail Revival Strategy and Regeneration Masterplan. 1.7 As the study is to form part of the emerging Local Plan evidence base, it is important that the Council continues to monitor the health of the town centre, revisiting the strategy to address changing circumstances. REPORT STRUCTURE 1.8 In accordance with the terms of the Study Brief this report is structured as follows: PART ONE – BACKGROUND DETAIL AND CONTEXT Section 2 – Hartlepool Context describes the current retail offer within the borough and details its socio-demographic profile. 2 Distribution extends beyond the defined town centre boundary to include adjacent retail and service outlets within the area covered by Experian’s GOAD plan for Hartlepool.

It has not been previously submitted, in part or completely, to any university or institution for any degree, diploma, or other qualification. Signed: ______________________________________________________________ Date: _________________________________________________________________ iii Word Template by Friedman & Morgan 2014 Morgan & Friedman by Word Template iv Word Template by Friedman & Morgan 2014 Morgan & Friedman by Word Template ABSTRACT As new digital technology fundamentally changes the way people shop, retail firms are increasingly seeking to optimise their store portfolios so that they effectively support the provision of an omni-channel retail offer, which is leading to the decline of many traditional retail spaces. This thesis seeks to explore this issue, by considering why, in the face of such profound structural changes in retailing, the prevailing response of planners has been to reemphasise support for „town-centre-first‟, despite the fact that such an approach appears fundamentally misaligned with the issues that are driving decline today. Utilising a mixed methods approach, involving a detailed historical analysis of the evolution of retail planning in England and in-depth interviews with planners, this thesis seeks to understand why it is that town-centre-first continues to pervade as a strategic approach in retail planning.

Tees Valley Partnership Darlington Gateway Development Framework 2 1 Executive Summary Introduction 1.1 The Tees Valley Partnership appointed Donaldsons, in partnership with SQW Ltd, Lewelyn Davies and Jacobs Consultancy in May 2002 to undertake a major development framework for a number of sites in the Darlington area. The sites are located around the main line rail station; in the town centre; close to the A66 and close to the A1 (M) and include four strategic development sites each over 40ha (100 acres). 1.2 Prior to this appointment Darlington was identified as the ‘Gateway’ to the Tees Valley and it is believed that the town has locational and quality of life advantages which, if capitalised upon, can generate economic and development activity, which may not go elsewhere in the Tees Valley.
