New vision for Gateshead unveiled
A new vision for the 20-year regeneration of Gateshead town centre, Tyne and Wear, has been unveiled by the local authority.
Gateshead Council has backed a report detailing a blueprint for the long-term redevelopment programme, which will see the town transformed by 2030. Proposals outlined in the Gateshead Centre Regeneration Delivery Strategy include a new creative quarter where specialist businesses will mix with artists in a conservation area, as well as a new city park and a tree-lined boulevard to replace Gateshead Highway.
Four key recommendations have been made by the report, which is the result of a year-long study involving architects, designers, transport experts, property advisers and economists. A public consultation has also helped shape the plans. Recommendations include the development of retail, a diverse range of houses, and new green spaces.
Leader of Gateshead Council, Mick Henry, said: "This is the roadmap for the next 20 years and our ambitious plans have the power to create a new, green and creative Gateshead centre that people will be proud of." Ed Rowley, acting director of regeneration at One North East, added: "This report looks at what improvements are needed to make Gateshead fit for the 21st century and to tie it in better to key areas around the town centre, especially the Gateshead Quays area."
The report, commissioned by the council and One North East, was produced by international design practice, BDP.
