Examines six case studies of sites drawn from the Thames Gateway and Greater Manchester sub-regions illustrating a broad spectrum of brownfield regeneration issues. Principal findings include: infrastructure, density and affordability rather than contamination are the main challenges for brownfield regeneration in these areas, government and related agencies must ensure that infrastructure is in place before development takes place, and planning delays and bureaucracy. Advocates a greater role for the public sector in brownfield development.
