Official plans submitted for 'new-look' Eden Project Morecambe

An updated planning application for Eden Project Morecambe has been submitted to Lancaster City Council.

- 

It was first announced in June that the proposal for the £100m promenade attraction had been altered from how it was originally envisaged by the Eden team.

And now the request to officially vary conditions in the original 2021 planning application have been lodged with the council for consideration.

Eden’s design and access statement, submitted as part of the planning application, says the revised design has been developed “with careful consideration of the consented scheme, while still adapting the design to reflect changes to the visitor experience concept and ensuring that the project can be delivered within the confirmed budget and timeframe.”

The statement goes on to say: “Whilst the core vision remains intact, the proposals for Eden Project Morecambe have evolved since planning consent was granted in 2022 in order to meet the needs of its target audience whilst responding to a more challenging economic landscape.
