The report seeks commitment to spend part of
the council’s approved Regeneration Feasibility Reserve for
both strategic contextual and discrete project feasibility work on
the area known as Heysham Gateway. The main aim behind the Heysham
Gateway strategy is to provide a portfolio of high quality,
sustainable employment sites which will prove attractive to
businesses and build on the improvements in accessibility provided
by the Bay Gateway. The intention is to establish Heysham Gateway
as a premier business location in the north west for companies
operating in the council's priority economic sectors.
