There’s no place like home! Momentum City residents live in a mix of dense urban centre developments co-located with manufacturing and retail, student accommodation, affordable housing, and housing developments in our suburban areas, across owner-occupied and social and privately-rented accommodation.
In Momentum City the transport strategy driving our housing focuses on…
pedestrian friendly, walkable environments
creating vibrant, healthy and safe communal areas for everyone to enjoy
reduces private car trips to enable more homes and businesses within a footprint
sustainable travel by providing the infrastructure to create modal shift towards public transport, shared mobility and active travel
freight solutions to reduce each community’s transport carbon footprint
We take inspiration from:
Brabazon masterplan, Bristol
For its aim to become a flagship of urban design and placemaking in the UK
UCL East campus masterplan, London
For its ‘shared space’ surface which contributes to a desirable on-campus living space for students while considering essential servicing activity
The Cundy Street Quarter, London
Which will “transform a closed off site, dominated by car parking with no public amenities, into a low carbon part of Belgravia, with affordable homes framed by improved green spaces, a community hub, food store and cinema.”
