City Centre Districts and Connectivity
The city centre is organized into distinct districts (including a Waterfront District) that should be connected by green/blue infrastructure and accessible routes to create a compact, liveable centre attractive to businesses, residents and visitors.
The districts will be connected to each other, the retail core and the adjacent neighbourhoods by the green and blue infrastructure network, and high quality routes that are accessible to all sections of the community. This will help to deliver a compact city centre that is liveable, attractive to businesses, and appealing to visitors. These areas have been defined according to their existing and potential place-making roles and new development will need to respond to their individual characteristics to facilitate the creations of distinct districts where people want to live, work and enjoy leisure activities.
