Since the completion of the Charrette in 2014 a substantial number of new affordable housing have been built and further areas for housing and economic development have been identified. Successful regeneration and sustainable housing however also require accompanying green-infrastructure to turn new development into attractive and desirable neighbourhoods, tie them into the existing urban fabric and meet the Councils and Governments own targets to create happy, healthy and sustainable towns and cities.

The Green Infrastructure Masterplan reviews the existing greenspaces and network systems of the Pathhead area in relationship to existing and new housing, whether the greenspace targets set out by the planning department are achieved, if existing greenspaces can be improved to satisfy requirements, where additional greenspace is required and where new greenspace would be best positioned to have the highest impact and catchment. As part of the masterplan, design guidelines have been developed to improve existing parks and greenspaces within the area.

Within the final stage of this masterplan five projects are being developed further with concept proposals in order to obtain funding and to implement those at a first stage.
