The project is addressing regional flood
risk management issues (offering the strategy of “giving the room back to the river”), promoting wetland restoration (protecting the nature life, increasing local valuable plant and animal species, recreating
fragile habitats), a strategy toward heritage protection (inspired by the study of Cliffe Explosives site by English Heritage), enhancing waterways (creation of new harbor, developing water infrastructure inland), enhancing economically sustainable urban settings (bringing back ‘soft’ industries on site to add land value locally and regionally by installing production areas of integrated fish farming and agriculture, as well as keeping certain amount of grazing fields).
