Cardiff Bay
Development

Locum consultants provided the destination development advice that helped to transform the disused 'Tiger Bay' docks into one of Europe's most exciting waterfront developments. Working initially with Cardiff Bay Development Corporation and later with other stakeholders including the National Assembly for Wales, Locum advised on the concept for the destination and its management, branding and operation.

“The people at Locum devised the visitor development strategy behind the transformation of Cardiff's disused docks into one of Europe's most exciting waterfront destinations. We have ten times the number of visits we had ten years ago”.

By 2000, Cardiff Bay had become one of the most successful regeneration projects in Europe, attracting approximately £500 million of UK public investment and £1.14 billion of private investment.
