Ipswich Borough Council Local Plan Site Allocations and Policies (incorporating IP-One Area Action Plan) DPD Review - Final Draft
Site Ref: IP054b (Policy SP2) Land between Old Cattle Market & Star Lane

Bus station is included within Opportunity Area B, however IP054b should be extended north to include the bus station. The future redevelopment of part/ all of the site could enhance connectivity by providing a pedestrian-friendly mixed-use area to link Turret Lane to Dogs Head Lane and the Buttermarket. The land (in red) is under lease as a bus station, however given wider regeneration aims for this area, IP054b should be extended north to cover the opportunity area. This would ensure that the plan remains flexible over the plan period, particularly towards the end and ensure plan soundness.
Extend IP054B northwards to cover the Opportunity Area B/ Cattlemarket Bus Station (Merchants Quarter).

Site Ref: IP011b (Policy SP2) Smart Street/ Foundation Street (South)

Respondent: Ortona Properties Ltd
The landowner (Ortona Properties Ltd) supports the allocation for the residential use of the site. The current use of the site remains as a bus depot under a lease agreement, but could come forward for development between the middle to end of the plan period. The site provides important linkage for the redevelopment of Merchants Quarter and would provide improved frontage along Star Lane, which in turn would provide visual enhancement to the Central and Wet Dock Conservation Areas.
