two.1.4) Short description

Lancaster City Council is seeking to appoint a multi-disciplinary professional services team to develop a masterplan and phased project investment case / strategy for its land assets within the Canal Quarter regeneration area. The council is seeking bids from individual integrated multi-disciplinary firms (and their associates) or consortium (with identified lead organisation/firm). The plan will also integrate the two major private land/development interests in the area into a viable and coherent area-wide scheme capable of clear, phased and/or concurrent delivery, through a mix of major private/public investment and grant aid.

Regeneration of the Canal Quarter area is critical to enhancing Lancaster’s role as a sub-regional centre and boosting its housing, commercial, cultural and leisure offer. Over the next 10 years it is envisaged that key “gap” sites and dereliction within the 6.5 ha wider site envelope will be addressed and development progressed for a mix of uses that will complement the existing town centre and provide for balanced place-making.
