King’s Quarter redevelopment
One of the final pieces of the jigsaw in terms of Gloucester’s regeneration, the King’s Quarter Redevelopment will transform King’s Square and the area between it and the new bus station. The square will become a focal point for the city’s leisure offering, with a new Severn Bore-themed statue and a huge outdoor screen for televising significant events. And new buildings nearby will see housing, office and shared working space be built alongside new restaurants, bars and food courts, in a development that will be a focal point for the city.
Innsworth Gateway Project Spades are already in the ground on a huge chunks of land to the north of Gloucester, around Innsworth, as hundreds of new homes are constructed. With new homes, comes more people and more cars and a need to increase and improve the infrastructure, so a new roundabout is planned for the A40 between Elmbridge and Longford. That will become the gateway to the new estates beyond, in theory relieving some of the pressure on the surrounding roads.
