Location map

Considerations

Car park is on a steep gradient
Saltash Peace Garden is a well maintained space opposite the Church
Space is abutted by Station Road

Opportunities

Occasional closure of Station Road to private vehicles
New public square formed in front of war memorial
Single access / exit point to car park
Lower third of car park given over to terraced ‘sitting-steps’ facing east
Potential for stage area with Tamar bridge backdrop
Green pockets created within car park and opportunities for vertical greening
Peace Gardens enhanced and extended

This sketch proposal shows the opportunity for improvements to Alexandra Square car park, with the eastern half dedicated to improved public spaces and rearranged parking spaces on the western side
