The Limerick Docklands Initiative* appointed the team of Consultants to prepare an Economic Strategy for revitalising Limerick Docklands and to describe in physical terms the Vision and Strategies required to achieve its implementation.

The Master Plan highlights the key issues to be addressed and the key tasks to be undertaken to achieve a market influenced regeneration of the Limerick Docklands. It is a blueprint for the integration of the Docklands area into the Urban fabric of Limerick City Centre, focusing on a detailed response to the “Inner Zone” of the Port area of c.18 hectares.

Other important sites include:. Greenpark – former Limerick Racecourse Site . Bord Gais Site. Kerry Group Lands (formerly Cleeves)The implementation of the Limerick Docklands Initiative is essential to establishing Limerick as a true Gateway City in the National Spatial Strategy
