The Borough Council, together with English Partnerships have commissioned consultants (Halcrow) to undertake a feasibility study of the regeneration potential of three sites in the Borough (Sixfields, Harvey Reeves Road and Ransome Road). The study, published in February 2003, identified proposals for the Sixfields area, including possible further retail or leisure development, in the area currently used as a Car Park and Recycling Centre. The study examined a range of issues including ownership, geotechnical and contamination issues. It is available as a separate report1. In view of the fact that these issues have already been considered, they need not be covered in this report. The Council has adopted the preferred strategies identified by Halcrow for the three sites. In respect of the Sixfields area the preferred strategy is set out below; • Package 1: Park and ride, civic amenity sites and land to the south redeveloped for retail/leisure/car showroom or alternatively offices.
