The Masterplan strives to:
• Create an attractive and inviting world class campus compatible with the University’s status as one of the UK’s largest Universities.
• Create a new heart for UCLan that showcases its key principles of openness, transparency and accessibility.
• Reinforce connections with the city centre to encourage wider regeneration opportunities.
• Transform the student experience by creating better quality open spaces defined by new buildings.
• Improve and extend the public realm to support campus activities and reinforce connectivity and legibility of pedestrian and cycle routes.
• Relocate car parking from the centre to the edge of the campus to promote a healthier, more pedestrian friendly campus.
• Consider where new buildings can augment the University’s existing stock to accommodate functions currently inadequately housed on site, prioritising creative learning and social spaces and state of the art technologies.
• Improve the ground floor use and appearance of the existing buildings to create inviting, socially active environments.
• Consider seasonal variations by the provision of covered spaces which are conveniently located across the campus.
• Create a healthy, safe, active and sustainable campus.
• Set up a flexible framework for future buildings to respond to the changing needs of the University.
