A comprehensive vision for the Blackpool Heritage Trams: a truly smart approach.

Project: Research

Description

Heritage Trams, which is part of Blackpool Transport (Blackpool Council) appears to lack the attention and the place it deserves in the future. The research will respond to the question of “How can a truly smart future can support the preservation of the Rigby Road Depot and Blackpool Heritage Trams”? The research identifies two key areas: the urban fabric history in relation to the tram preservation operations for Blackpool as a leisure destination, and the design of a policy framework for the future of trams for a smart and liveable urban lifestyle. Specifically, the research will support the the preservation of the historical character to become a museum to house archival material and historical evidence of the trams in the life of Blackpool.
