Changing Lanes
Changing Lanes is a series of reports that aims to quantify the effect of street changes on nearby businesses in the context of wider economic trends.
The first Changing Lanes report looked at the short-term effect of street development in five locations on nearby retailers.
The second report continues looking at several case studies from the original, considers trading patterns between the hospital and Courtenay Place, and introduces two new areas where the street layout is being or has been changed. We have also included information on merchant types in each area to better understand how the mix of businesses in an area might change over time.
