NEWPORT
Newport’s location at the mouth of the
river Usk has attracted visitors for centuries.
The City’s history dates back to a Celtic
settlement 2000 years ago.
Having successfully hosted the Ryder Cup
in 2010 and with an ambitious vision that
could lead to up to £2 billion of public/private
investment in the City, Newport’s regeneration
is going from strength to strength.
At the heart of the City’s rejuvenation is
Newport’s 2020 Vision: a masterplan of
citywide regeneration schemes and projects.
This ambitious programme aims to reinforce
the City as an economic engine for South East
Wales, realising its national and international
potential and delivering a prosperous, vibrant,
inclusive and forward-thinking City.
Remarkable in both scale and scope,
Newport’s 2020 Vision includes a revitalised
station district, an enhanced riverfront – home
to the theatre and arts centre and a new
£35 million university campus – a refreshed
retail core, a wealth of hi-spec office spaces
and much more.
