The Work Package forms a substantial part of several initiatives which are being made possible by a Local Growth Fund grant to support the recovery of Cambridge city centre from the impact of the coronavirus pandemic, due for implementation in June 2021. Vision (and values): The city is recognised as a "great place to live, learn and work" which is at the forefront of policies which care for the planet and promote "economic dynamism and prosperity combined with social justice and equality." It takes seriously its commitment to tackle the local and global threat of climate change, both internally and in partnership with local organisations and residents and to minimise its environmental impact by cutting carbon, waste, and pollution. To attract footfall back to Cambridge's iconic historic centre, its retail, hospitality and cultural sectors, street design improvements are being sought with a cohesive, bespoke theme which should add to and strengthen upon these values, its unique architectural heritage, and reputation for innovation as a large cluster of high-tech businesses. It is intended whole life-cycle approaches will act as reference points for the design process. Provision should be allowed for the manufacturing of products that have an 'infinite life' through refurbishment, which can be reused and re-sited elsewhere in the city - for example, as with community parklets on residential streets. The deliverables need to be integrated and interoperable between all key elements of the scheme. Combined bids will be considered. Expressions of interest are sought from organisations who have delivered innovative projects for enhancement of city areas designed to make Cambridge a destination of choice.
