“Presentation of latest Masterplan of the North Quay Development”
He will be talking about the latest masterplan for the massive redevelopment of the area. The multi-million-pound regeneration, led by Great Yarmouth Borough Council and supported by Levelling Up funding, will transform the 10-acre riverside site into a vibrant mixed-use quarter. The scheme will reconnect the town centre with the waterfront, create new public spaces and deliver long-term benefits for residents, visitors and local businesses.
Expected to attract up to two million visits per year, the scheme will also provide a welcome boost to tourism and local businesses. It is expected to create up to 500 jobs during the construction phase, up to 600 permanent positions in retail, leisure and hospitality in the development itself, and up to 400 further jobs in the surrounding area once open.
