Creating a vibrant, car-free future

LUC's Transport & Movement Planners are at the forefront of this transformation. We're supporting the removal of 2,000 car parking spaces, promoting a shift towards public transport, cycling, and walking.

Innovative strategies aim to change public perception of private vehicles, encouraging a more sustainable future for Buchanan Galleries.

Expert analysis for seamless movement

LUC's Transport specialists are meticulously assessing the impact of the development. This includes trip generation and distribution patterns, traffic flow, and parking provision.

The car-free design prioritises public realm improvements and infrastructure that fosters sustainable travel choices.

Prioritising accessibility for all

While prioritising sustainability, LUC remains committed to inclusivity.

A dedicated mobility-impaired parking strategy ensures that 16 disabled bays are incorporated throughout the project area, adhering to the Equality Act 2010.
