Kirkley
is undergoing major regeneration through schemes which will affect the
whole area.
Southern Relief Road
This will give traffic a choice of routes through Kirkley, reducing through
traffic on the existing A12 road thus making the area more appealing to
shoppers.

Waveney Sunrise Scheme
This is a £14.7 million image enhancement scheme covering Lowestoft’s
traditional town centre, Kirkley and seafront access. In parallel with
the opening of the Southern Relief Road, Kirkley’s environment will
be improved with new street furniture, lighting, trees and traffic calming
measures.

Lowestoft Resort Regeneration Project
A Seafront Garden Scheme is being designed to improve the seafront from
the Royal Plain to Kensington Gardens, regenerating the promenade, public
gardens and the beach facilities. The scheme will also include improvements
to the waterfront at Oulton Broad, encouraging stronger links between
the broad and the sea.

Situated adjacent to Waveney Drive, the business park is fronted by the
Riverside Business Centre and the unique Honda Brand Centre owned by PFK
Ling. Most of the available land here has now been allocated and is awaiting
development.

Urban Regeneration Company
A company is being setup to focus on the development of the remaining
land designated for regeneration. This will cover the area from the inner
harbour through to Oulton Broad, including part of Kirkley. The redevelopment
of strategic sites within the centre of Kirkley is seen as crucial as
it will link the beach with the South Quay Development.
