MASTERPLAN STRATEGY
m
1. Canal Network
2. Green Space
3. Cycle Routes
4. Built infrastructure
By introducing a network of canals and footpaths similar in dimension and layout to Amsterdam the site will encourage walking and cycling. Moreover the thermal cooling effects which Amsterdam experiences in the summer will be felt in Tilbury. Equally they will act as a flood protection and aid the aquaponic functioning.
