Pathfinder Urban Regeneration Companies
Architecture and Design Scotland (A+DS) has teamed up with the Scottish Government Development Department to drive forward the design agenda with the six Pathfinder Urban Regeneration Companies (URCs).
The three year Framework Agreement will allow a dedicated programme of work under the People and Place Regeneration Policy Statement, thereby raising the level of ambition and design quality throughout the URC areas.
Through A+DS's Enabling Programme, dedicated, hands-on assistance to the URCs and their partners will be provided. Up to 200 days of assistance will be provided by a team of built environment experts from a variety of professions and fields who have been appointed by A+DS 'Enablers'. Assistance and guidance will be provided on:
JKS Workshops - Part of Clydebank Rebuilt URC
- Strategic design decisions, including: policy preparation, engaging with development partners, and procuring supporting design services, and
- Project design decisions, including: client management of design processes, masterplanning and site development briefs, and the selection and management of design teams engaged in strategic or site specific projects.
