Projects / The Embankment, Cardiff

Client

Vastint UK

Project Description

The Embankment at Dumballs Road will deliver the sustainable redevelopment of a key strategic, 40-acre site, creating up to 2,500 new homes alongside 54,000 m² of business space as well as opportunities for leisure, hospitality and retail users, on what is currently under-utilised, low-quality industrial space.

Innovations & added value

The proposal will open up access to the riverside reconnecting the city to the bay with an uninterrupted pathway and provide much needed connections between Grangetown and Butetown through inclusion of a new cycle and footbridge across the River Taff. The plans also include considerable open space with a new riverside park and water taxi stop that will create additional enjoyable routes along the River.
