Overview
Tamworth Borough Council is seeking to engage with the market in relation to securing the future delivery of the Gungate Regeneration Project within Tamworth town centre. The opportunity extends to circa 6.82 acres (2.76 hectares) gross and is situated within the Gungate Regeneration Quarter linking the town centre and Tamworth Railway Station.
The opportunity is identified within Tamworth Town Centre Masterplan 2025 as a key opportunity. Tamworth Borough Council has had a long-term objective to bring forward a comprehensive regeneration scheme in this area and to do so the Council has sought to expand its ownership in the area to create a comprehensive site for redevelopment.
Due to its size, location, and excellent connectivity, Gungate is a regionally significant regeneration opportunity which has the potential to reinforce the long-term vitality and growth of the town centre. AspinallVerdi have been commissioned by Tamworth Borough Council to undertake Soft Market Testing.
