Supplementary Planning Document (SPD8) Nelson Street (2006) sets out a vision for transforming Nelson Street from an underused and unloved canyon into a vibrant new quarter of the city centre and a key pedestrian/cycle link between Broadmead, Harbourside, Old City and Christmas Steps. The enhancement of the public realm (parts of a city that are available without charge for everyone to see, use and enjoy) was central to this vision.
The Nelson Street public realm strategy envisages the comprehensive enhancement of the public realm in the Nelson Street area, which will help to stimulate new investment. The strategy will inform both the public realm and public art of the current and future regeneration proposals. It will also guide future maintenance and investment from the city council.
