Regeneration decision-making: Some early ‘opportunities’
and decisions for SURegen

Marshall-Ponting, Amanda Jane

Abstract

The multi-disciplinary EPSRC funded SURegen project is developing a digital decision support aid that will capture good practice in sustainable urban regeneration for use by practitioners for real time decision-making, training and education purposes. It will achieve this by identifying the key decision points in the early stages of the regeneration process, such as diagnosis and visioning, and simulating a variety of decision impacts or outcomes. This paper will provide detail about the development of the project’s general approach and technical methodology, its data collection techniques and the important role that the project’s industrial partners are playing in ensuring that the project delivers a tool that is both contextually specific to the Manchester case studies whilst providing good practice examples of interest to regeneration throughout the UK and beyond. It provides details of the outcomes of a recent workshop exploring the project partners’ aspirations and priorities for the SURegen decision-support tool.
