01 THE OBSERVATORY LITTLE WOODLDEN BIRD HIDE AND CONSERVATION FACILITY Located in wetland landscape of the Chat Moss peat bog.

The brief was to formulate an environmental strategy for the observatory to be in line with ARB sustainability guidlines that now call for understanding of principles related to climate science inoder to minimise negative impacts of the built environment in the fight against climate change.

Understanding the Off the Beaten Track master plan

Off the beaten track is a master plan designed by salford city council encouraging the use of circlying networks in form of green routes.

Benfits of the plan • Encorages growth of econmic activities such as tourism in historical site & recreational activites such as bird watching with their releted benfits.

• Enhances physical fitness through establishing of cycling routes whilst linking various activities.

Draw backs • Does not connect to the barton airfeild or port salford.

Understanding the Port Salford Master plan

Phase 2 port salford masterplan

Green spaces Road networks Phase 1 Port salford masterplan

About Port Salford Masterplan Port Salford masterplan phase 1 & 2 is a project by port located around the Barton airfield designed to boost the rate of exports and imports within Salford.

Project draw backs • Phase 1 doesn’t consider environmental & social aspects such as recreational activities.

Benefits • Highly considerate of economical outcomes i.e., Increasing revenue gained from imports and exports.

• Creates the possibility for new transportation routes that can be accessed by the public.

Draft Masterplan Development

Identifying key places for the master plan in relation to Off the Beaten Track masterplan and Port salford masterplan (preexsiting masterplans) with the aid of google maps.

Draft Masterplan Development

Design strategies revolving around existing masterplans through multiple design explorations of minimal green routes that can serve as cycling paths for the local population through a process of overlaying different designs on existing maps documented maps whilst connecting different activities and sections to formulate a draft masterplan.

This is so as to encourage the use of low carbon modes of transport such as bicycle riding, encourage recreation activities such as jogging trails, promote heritage through linking historical sites, promote employment and bring important social and economic activities closer to the public through providing accessible transportation routes (green ways) that can be accessed by the public.

Repositioning the railyway connection for port salford that can be used for public transport along the green way and keeping both new phase 2 of port salford masterplan since it encourages bio diversity.

Maintain greenway circulation around sections close to public transport where possible and connect various social and econmic activites with green spaces with the Barton airfeild being the back bone of the masterplan.

Forming a green way to the Visitor Little Woolden Bird Hide And Conservation Facility to increase environmental awareness as well as encourage voluntary activities.

Reorganise port Salford masterplan phase 1 to prevent an offset of the biodiversity surrounding the creek.
