Building a New Sustainable Town – Fawley Waterside

Speakers:

Aldred Drummond, Chief Executive, Fawley Waterside
Atholl Noon, Director, Markides Associates

Chaired by Andreas Markides, AoU Director

Our two speakers are protagonists in designing, promoting and implementing sustainable communities. Their presentations will focus on their most recent enterprise to convert a disused power station site at Fawley, overlooking Southampton water, into an exemplar development, based on the principles of high-quality design, sustainable movement and placemaking. Amongst other things they will relate their efforts to engage with the surrounding communities and all the different stakeholders; to secure funding with the proposals; and to deliver innovative transport solutions which could include a new railway station as well as ferry services between the site and Southampton.
