Regeneration is placemaking; transforming or creating an area into somewhere that is attractive to people to live, work, buy, socialise and relax. That includes having the right infrastructure to improve connections to key locations, for commuting in and out. Brexit and the Covid-19 pandemic has made it more important than ever for the UK to develop world-class towns and cities. We are here to help.
