dc.description.abstract | A 6?6 ha (66 000 m2) regeneration site, commonly referred to as Luneside East, is to be turned from a run down,
economically under-achieving area of Lancaster, UK, into a new, distinctive, vibrant, sustainable quarter of the city. As
a result several aspects of water planning for 350 new homes and 8000 m2 of workspace needed to be considered
before any infrastructure investment was undertaken. This included assessment of the future capacity requirements
(i.e. inflows and outflows) for water infrastructure (i.e. mains water supply, wastewater disposal, rainwater storage
and stormwater disposal) much of which will be located underground. This paper looks at the implications of various
water management strategies on the Luneside East site (e.g. water-efficient appliances, greywater recycling and
rainwater harvesting) in line with current policy measures that focus on technology changes alone (e.g. the code for
sustainable homes). Based on these findings this paper outlines some basic implications for technological resilience
discussed in the context of four ‘world views’ – that is, the urban futures scenarios considered in this special issue.
Conclusions are drawn as to how far this can take engineers, planners and developers in understanding and planning
for resilient water infrastructure within a development like Luneside East. | en_GB |
