Harbour Area<br />
Development in this area<br />
The harbour area of <strong>Brixham</strong> is renowned for being quaint and picturesque as well as being a busy working fishing port, with modern fishing<br />
industry demands.<br />
Housing development should be limited, as it is a conservation area and any dwellings that are developed should reflect the qualities of the<br />
surrounding terraced houses.<br />
The fishing industry attracts tourists and the demands of both these industries should be dovetailed together in any infrastructure improvements<br />
to enhance and facilitate both. Improved provision should be made to enable tourists to view the working of the fishing harbour and market<br />
area. Footfall from both these industries makes navigation along the quay a hazardous environment for both pedestrians and vehicles. It is<br />
therefore essential that adequate provision is made to enhance the daily routine for the tourist, resident and worker in this part of the town.<br />
