Late summer 2018 We welcome all comment and observations and ask that you write your thoughts on post-it notes or comment forms.

3 The Greenock Town Centre Masterplan, developed in 2015 / 2016 through an inclusive Charrette process, identified a key public realm project considered as the priority for Town Centre regeneration: West Blackhall Street Public Realm Improvements to the quality of environment in West Blackhall Street Better connections to the town centre West Blackhall Street sits north of the Oak Mall and needs to see investment and better town centre connectivity, to attract a potential market of cruise visitors & crew as well as consolidate and support it s role as a key retail & residential street and emerging night-time quarter. Objectives Ocean Terminal will continue to deliver a major tourism gateway to Inverclyde, with over 100+ liners expected to bring over 100,000 international visitors to the Waterfront at Greenock each year. The West Blackhall Street project seeks to develop attractive, accessible and convenient routes, connecting Greenockians, tourists, cruise visitors & crew to the retail offering, but importantly to wider town centre locations, encouraging full access to retail and leisure opportunities, to boost the town s economy. Project funding has been secured and Riverside Inverclyde, on behalf of Inverclyde Council, have appointed a Design Team to develop proposals in conjunction with a steering group including members of the Greenock Town Centre Regeneration Forum. Design development will progress over summer/ autumn months. If support is successfully secured works could commence in 2019.

4 Charrette A charrette is an intensive consultation that engages local people in the design of their community. In 2016 Riverside Inverclyde & Inverclyde Council promoted events in Greenock with the aim to involve local residents, businesses and stakeholders in planning the future of the town centre. The process identified key projects: Increased distinctiveness of West Blackhall Street Significant improvements to connections between the town centre and the waterfront.

Key Qualities Place a sticky dot against points that are important to you A street busy with people, events and activity attracting more footfall and longer visits Flexibility/ ability to accommodate events/ changing uses More use of the outdoor environment Better quality setting for shops and businesses Any Others Do you have any other ideas? Actions Street dressing infrastructure opportunity for quick & easy use of banners/ festive lighting/ other to promote special events & activities Opportunities for temporary traffic closures to create space for wall to wall events Wider pavements for more licenced outdoor eating & drinking Access for loading and convenient parking supporting businesses Any Others Do you have any other ideas?

13 Existing One-Way System West Blackhall Street is organised as a one-way traffic system West Blackhall Street is broken in 3 & cannot be used as a thoroughfare Unintuitive one way loop West Burn St - Nicolson St (west)- Jamaica St - Argyle Street one way loop Disconnected Laird St - Nicolson St (east) loop

14 Parking On street parking is provided to each side of West Blackhall street & surrounding streets 176 parking spaces on West Blackhall Street & surrounding streets 7 on-street loading bays 8 car parks within 5minute (400m) walking distance To achieve meaningful change some loss of parking might be necessary

15 Design Scenarios A pedestrianised Through traffic Alternating Shared surface section with limited parking & plazas parking & access widened footway for loading

16 Design Scenarios Benefits: Maximises accessible space Pedestrianised sections can operate with flexibility (occasionally / seasonally / permanently) Tree planting Implications: Loss of area parking: 45% Reduction to natural surveillance when footfall is low Less clarity of zones for vulnerable users (children, those with visibility impairment)

17 Design Scenarios Benefits: Access for loading Disabled parking Wider pavements Space for on street furniture Tree planting Implications: Loss of parking area: 35% Significant level of footfall required to animate street Significant reconstruction required

18 Design Scenarios Benefits: Continuous one way access for vehicles Disabled parking On street parking Wider pavements (where parking is reduced) Access & space for loading Space for on street furniture Tree planting Implications: Loss of area parking: 22% Significant reconstruction
