Landmark new transport hub at the heart of the £2billion regeneration of Nottingham’s Southside, forming a key part of the reimagining of the existing gateway to the city.
The new building features a state-of-the-art bus terminal and multi-storey car park, plus a major new city library, retail, and leisure frontages at ground level. This, together with a significant upgrade to the public realm, will bring a new vibrancy to the streetscape in this gateway to the city.
The new transport hub will be a place for people as much as vehicles and create a more welcoming environment for them to dwell. The whole ethos of the development was driven by a sustainable approach to design and construction; solar panels, fast EV charge points, energy efficient lighting, recyclable materials and sensor-controlled ventilation will all contribute to energy efficiency and significantly lower carbon footprint.
Winner of the ‘Sustainable Development of the Year’ and ‘Commercial Development of the Year’ prizes at the 2022 East Midlands Bricks Awards.
