CLYDE GATEWAY RIVER ACCESS STUDY I JULY 2008 2 INTRODUCTION

The 2014 Commonwealth Games will provide a lasting legacy for Glasgow and its environs. The village itself will occupy an area adjacent to 1.1km of river waterfront separated from the river by the Clyde Walkway. The walkway will also provide access & proximity to the following facilities (some created specifically for The Games) which will become part of a lasting legacy that residents & visitors will benefit from;

• Celtic Park • National Indoor Sports Arena (NISA) • Velodrome • National Swimming Centre at Tolcross

The first three could become centred around a Commonwealth Plaza – a high quality civic space.

These facilities will put additional focus onto the Clyde Walkway as it becomes a major link for pedestrians & cyclists, westwards from & to the city centre and into the heart of the East End Regeneration Area as well as for athlete’s during the Games (as a security measure, this section of the Clyde Walkway is likely to be closed to the general public at this time). The Athlete’s village will consist of approximately 1200 homes with approximately a quarter as social housing.

This study builds upon 3 previous studies – • Clyde Gateway Green Network Strategy • Clyde Waterfront Green Network Strategy, • The River Clyde Access Project

It has also taken on board access proposals within the GCC Core Paths Plan for river access and referred to the initial Athlete’s Village Masterplan for the 2014 Commonwealth Games Bid document. Also, Gillespie’s Cuningar Loop Masterplan for South Lanarkshire Council envisages a mix-use development within ground formed by the large meander in the river Clyde directly opposite the Games Village with a significant visitor attraction at its heart. Amongst all these various studies are proposals for new Clyde crossing points (with some advocating fig. 2 - site location 4-5) to increase, invigorate & instigate connectivity through the area.

Priority projects to the north of the study area include London Road which could have its public realm enhanced once through traffic is removed to the M74 extension. To the west Dalmarnock Riverside Park & Dalmarnock Road Station Plaza could also become civic spaces connected to the Clyde Walkway.

Ease of access along the Clyde Walkway is not a contemporary issue. In the early 19th century stood the house of Westhorn, owned by local whisky dis- tiller Thomas Harvey & located a kilometre upriver of the site. His grounds went down to the bank of the Clyde & in order to protect his privacy from people walking the ‘popular Clydeside Footpath’ built ‘Harvey’s Dyke’, (walls either end of his property) which closed off a 1 mile section to the public. In 1822, an angry mob began dismantling it which required troops to intervene. After this wall reconstruction began again but was challenged in the courts & on appeal the charges against the offenders were quashed.

At this time, the Clyde Walkway was a right of way, effectively a towpath. The 1865 map below illustrates the more rural nature of this part of the rutherglen bridge (1884) Clyde with a series of country villas like Westhorn and Belvidere (which later became the infectious diseases hospital), cottages, farms & lanes. Although, the landscape of the area has urbanised over time, industry has existed for over 200yrs with a series of print & dye works e.g. Springfield Print & Dye works on the Games Village site & there was a waterworks within the Cuningar Loop in 1865. As industry grew, the area subse- quently suffered from the dumping of waste from the industrial processes leading to the contamination issues & brownfield sites experienced today.

What has remained in the narrow corridor of the Clyde Walkway to this day is an extensive green buffer which (particularly in summer) conceals much of the surrounding industry, housing & derelict land. In fact, the walker & cyclist can be oblivious to the landscape to the north as a result. It is this aspect which creates the ‘green’ character of a rural ride within the confines of the city.

The vast majority of the riverbank trees are self sown, which in conjunction with trees north of the walkway create the dense corridor. Much of the embankment was stone pitched during Victorian times and over time river deposited silts from flooding & slippages from higher up the embankment have created a growing medium for the trees. This medium is unstable and once the trees mature they are likely to fall into the river causing a hazard to boats (particularly rowers). In some places the tree roots have prised themselves into the stone pitching, lifting stones & inducing a bank side weak point susceptible to erosion.

Today, the area is in transition. The long term decline of the industrial base has affected the social infrastructure of the area but the Clyde Gateway Regeneration along with The Commonwealth Games and a further key asset of the Cuningar Loop proposals all have the potential to revitalise the area and they can all feature the Clyde Walkway as a main arterial access route. fig. 3 - land use analysis

LIGHTING BRIEF / GUIDELINE DOCUMENT

This document has been created to help define in outline the strategic approach to the design of the architectural lighting that will be a key part of the 2014 Commonwealth Games Vil- lage and Clyde Gateway site Development.

2014 Commonwealth Games Village and Clyde Gateway site has the potential to become a positive icon for a new and pro- gressive Glasgow. In line with recent developments completed in various other European and International cities, like London, Paris, Lille, Bar- celona, Helsinki and Oslo well designed architectural lighting is more and more seen as a vital consideration at any major urban projects’ outset.

It is crucial therefore that this revitalised part of the city looks great both by day and by night. The unique city riverside location and intelligent architectural design provide a structure and series of spaces rich in possibilities.

GREEN NETWORK CORRIDOR / NORTH APPROACH PATH TREE AVENUES - PEDESTRIAN AND CYCLE PATHS

The lighting proposed for the main Green Network Corridor routes comprises of two main elements. Low level 4m high pedestrian area street pole mounted lights either located centrally to the six metre wide pedestrian and cycle path or located with a stepped zig zag arrangement between trees.

The street pole lights lighting would be supported by lighting that up-lights the avenue trees.

The appendix to this document illustrates three options for the pedstrian and cycle path pole mounted lighting fittings. Gener- ally the design intent would be to use LED lighting street poles to light these areas. The LED units would be based on tried and tested units from at least two manufactures/ suppliers. The selection would only be based on suppliers that can demonstrate that best quality and Bin level warm white (3200K) LED are used form recognised and reputable LED manufacturers/suppiers. Our research has resulted in both Philips and We-ef Lighting being currently the manufacturers that have produced lighting units that work and are of the quality and robustness that would be suitable for this type of urban public realm project.

In general terms based on an arrangement of stepped or zig- zag pattern both the Philips City Wing LED street light and the We-ef OLC LED street light would produce safe levels of light across the path routes in line wit the recommendations of CI- BSE / ILE 01 – Lighting the Environment: A Guide to Good Urban Lighting (1995) and CIBSE LG06 – The Outdoor Envi- ronment (1992).

The Architectural Specialist Feature Lighting should also be developed in a manner that complies with the principles of ILE ‘Guidance Notes for the Reduction of Obtrusive Light GN01’ (Table 1) which is a Institute of Lighting Engineers guidance document promoting best lighting practice and best approach to controlling light pollution and upwards spill light in urban areas.

The proposed 4m high LED street lights broadly would be located at between 12m and 16m centres to achieve recommended lighting light levels based on ILE Category E3 and E4 areas.

CLYDE GATEWAY RIVER ACCESS STUDY I JULY 2008 38 LIGHTING

GREEN NETWORK CORRIDOR / TREE AVENUES PEDESTRIAN AND CYCLE PATHS

Working with the LED Street Pole lighting the proposed lighting for the Green Network Corridor main link avenue areas would also include good quality ground recessed up-lighting for key trees along main routes. The light fittings propsed would be IP65 or IP67 and would be selected to meet all currently recognised best practice recommendations. Fittings would be fitted with heat reducion measures,anti-vandal fixings and integral glare control. Tree uplights would also be located to ensure that light from these fittings actually lights the selected trees rather than lighting the sky and creating excess spill light.

Where public bench or seating features are proposed LED integral lighting details have been suggested to provide local accent lighting to bench plinths and seat edges. again this lighting would be integrated in a manner that ensures that light is focussed on exactly where it is required rather than creating excess spill light. Generally any LED integrated lighting will be specified as Warm White (3200K) colour temperature.

Where interpretive panels and exhibition display panels are suggested we have suggested that these are backlit using either T5 fluorescent lighting or LED backlighting within the metal urban display unit enclosure.

RIVER EDGE PIAZZA SPACE / NORTH OPTION 1

At the North end of the site where the main approach from Springfield Road and the Sports Venues occurs the lighting will change as the pedestrian and cycle path open out and form a piazza space. The LED street lighting is propsed to follow the river edge path system with lighting poles at approximately 12- 16m centres (depending on final light fitting selection).

The intention would be to relate the LED pole system directly to the task of providing safe levels of light along the upper and lower river edge path systems. Where the timber boardwalk deck is proposed at the waters edge lighting is suggested that will be integral with the ballustrade support system at the deck edge. This lighting would be developed to ensure that the light emitted is focussed to direct light away from the river and down onto the timber deck surface. From a ecological point of view we are keen to promote a responsible approach to how lighting is located at the waters edge and aim to ensure that minimal light spill is produced that may effect fish migration and breeding.

RIVER EDGE PIAZZA SPACE / NORTH - OPTION 2

This version of the North River Edge Piazza node space shows an alternative lighting arrangement. This involves removing the 4m street poles within the piazza space so that the lighting is more low level moving away from the main pedestrian routes to the river edge deck condition. This particular example shows step recessed led lights recessed in the stair risers at stair changes of angle and vertical fluorescent or LED linear lighting integral with the deck edge balustrade to light the deck edge.

This particular example shows the use of low level metal halide bollard lights within the piazza space. These bollard units would use 35W Philips CDM metal halide lamps or the Philips Cosmopolis energy efficient metal halide warm white lamps. Generally any bollard units would be chosen to adress vandalism issues and provide light without upwards spill light.

The bollards would also be specified that allow enough side light that the adajacent stair surfaces would be lit and safe after dark.

GREEN NETWORK CORRIDOR / TREE AVENUES OPTION 1 PEDESTRIAN AND CYCLE PATHS

At the point where the Green Network Corridor primary path route meets the river bank there is another key space. The threshold to the main site pedestrian bridge crossing offers a viewing location and place to sit by the rivers edge.

Lighting at this point can be arranged in several ways. Option 1 shows LED street pole lighting arranged to line through for upper and lower paths. This will address lighting level requirements on paths whilst also presenting an organised arrangement of lights when viewed from across the river. Spacings of lighting poles are between 12 and 16m apart.

PEDESTRIAN AND CYCLE PATHS / BRIDGE THRESHOLD

This illustration also shows vertical linear warm white LED lighting integrated within the vertical supports of the ballustrade elements at deck edges and bridge retaining edges.

The steps down to the waters edge could also be lit using water proof IP68X LED step lights - any lights at waters edge locations should be connected to a remote float switch to ensure that at times of high water and flooding that any lights within a certain threshold are switched off before submersion becomes a possibility.

The step lighting at this kind of location would have to be of at type that offers very controlled and localised beams of light to avoid glare on the river itself.
