Chesterfield Waterside
Chesterfield Waterside is an innovative joint venture partnership between Urbo and Chesterfield Borough Council to deliver a new £300m urban village on a 16 ha (40 acre) former industrial site adjacent to the A61 in the River Rother corridor. The project also involves restoration of the local canal network to create a fully navigable route.
The project is based on a masterplan prepared by Taylor Young, commended by the Planning Inspectorate for its approach. Development will be delivered by Urbo directly and also in partnership with other subdevelopers to ensure a mixed approach to design and delivery.
The project will create a stunning new waterside environment for apartments, houses, bars, restaurants and offices together with high quality waterside public realm features, contemporary landscape and public art.
The project design is now being refined by masterplanners EDAW together with lead architects Proctor and Matthews.
