Bicester Eco-Development
University of Bath Campus Enhancements
Bicester Eco-Development, a 5,000 residential unit for 350ha site, is one
of only four eco-towns that have met the Government’s high standards,
with the regeneration of Bicester at the heart of the scheme. Hyder’s
landscape architects have been working with the wider project team to
provide masterplanning, design and assessment services, together with
planning for long-term land management, on behalf of P3Eco and A2
Dominion. In particular, the green infrastructure strategy for the project
has been led by the Hyder landscape team.
The University of Bath sits within the context of nearby Cotswolds Area
of Outstanding Natural Beauty and City of Bath World Heritage Site.
The University takes pride in its campus environment, which includes a
national tree collection. Since 2009, Hyder’s landscape team has been
providing strategic advice regarding the campus masterplan, together
with detailed landscape (hard and soft) design and construction phase
support for campus enhancement projects including Arrivals Square, 1
West Building and, most recently, the new Centre for the Arts. Arrivals
Square was completed in 2010, 1 West is currently under construction,
with construction of Centre for the Arts programmed for 2013. The
Arrivals Square project achieved an Excellent BREEAM rating and the
landscape design won a place in the Royal Institute of British Architects
Higher Education Design Exhibition 2011.
