Images of the new Canal Quarter in Cardiff have been released by design and engineering consultancy, Atkins.
Atkins’ proposals for the quarter look to reveal a hidden canal lying beneath the street and its associated parking bays, transforming it into a waterside haven with lush planting to create a unique and vibrant space at the heart of the city.

As part of a wider transport development of the area, Atkins’ design will create a new landmark public space celebrating and reimagining a long-forgotten part of the city’s maritime history which has lain covered for decades.
Located in Cardiff city centre, The Canal Quarter will enhance the dock-feeder canal with a variety of sustainable interventions.
A series of bio-retention gardens and water features will capture rainfall and ensure that runoff is cleaned, controlled and reused. A cantilevered stage and terraced amphitheatre will host key cultural events throughout the year, and broadleaf tree planting, as well as a bespoke steel pergola with climbing plants, will provide dappled shade and pollution management.
The scheme is expected to open to the public next year.
