The North West of England's Newest Waterfront Development

Overview of The Waterfront


The Masterplan for The Waterfront Business Park:

The Waterfront Business Park is a high quality business location for B1 office, B2 workshop, and B8 Warehouse uses providing a modern and flexible environment

The site can accomodate up to 25,750 sq m in its first phase and overall 65,000 sq m of development

B1 uses restricted to 20% of overall 65,000 sq m floorspace this means no more than 13,000 sq m of B1 floorspace over the whole of Waterfront Business Park

Car parking provision is based on maximum parking levels as set out in the adopted Cumbria and Lake District Joint Structure Plan

High quality design (although elevational treatments will be left to the individual developer to determine, subject to the criteria set out in this Brief and the Port Area Action Plan)

There are two complimentary West Lakes Renaissance strategies that integrate with this project

  • Enterprise Support to encourage people of all ages to be entrepreneurial
  • Retention of people, particularly the 18-30s age group, within Furness

The Waterfront also provides a new living and recreational environment for people of all ages in a marina village which will include:

  • new 400 to 450 berth marina enclosed in the dock in the town centre
  • 600 homes  housing area
  • A landmark bridge over the Buccleugh dock
  • Cruise ship facilities
  • Boat transfer or canal linking the marina to the sea
  • Watersports centre
