Despite the potential benefits of a location on the coast, many port and coastal towns and cities are run-down and unattractive, and underperform in economic and social wellbeing terms. This is often a result of a poor built environment, derelict industrial and other legacy sites, and a lack of meaningful connectivity between the urban realm, green spaces and the waterfront. Rising sea levels and coastal erosion pose further, existential, threats. These issues are common to port and coastal cities and towns all around the UK, hence transcend simplistic north/south or east/west categorisation or division. Addressing them through effective, sustainable and resilient regeneration is essential to the UK Government's Net Zero and Levelling Up agenda. Our Network+ will use concepts developed by UKCRIC on Flourishing Systems. We will take a systems-based, people-focussed view of infrastructure; keeping people at the centre of the vision, considering infrastructure as a way of connecting together interdependent systems, which must be designed to be sustainable, inclusive, secure and resilient. The complexity of the component systems, and the heterogeneity of drivers and foci, makes it difficult to optimise the infrastructure system of systems, even generally, towards a better future.We will adopt the Line of Sight approach, which involves actively facilitating different communities (people, experts, authorities, government, investors) to understand their current and potential priorities and roles; then to explore and develop synergies focused on new, common objectives along aligned lines of sight. The activities of the Network+ will be organised through five interdependent strands: 1. Celebrating the major asset: connecting the town/city with the waterfront, balancing the needs of a functional waterfront with ambience, public accessibility, leisure and heritage 2. Inclusive infrastructure: engaging with communities, policymakers, the public sector and business to ensure effective infrastructure development and use 3. Maintaining and enhancing resilience: making port and coastal city and town regeneration resilient to climate change, sea-level rise, coastal erosion and flooding 4. Coastal region transport: addressing issues associated with the particular challenges of transport to/from and within port and coastal cities and towns arising from linear development along the coast or estuary, a current or former working waterfront, and the absence of up to half the hinterland5. Nature inspired, human scale engineering: including greening the grey infrastructure, to provide/enhance social value for the surrounding communitiesExtensive use will be made of testbed sites, with three having been selected as typifying a range of UK port and coastal city and town regeneration needs and issues. These are the port city of Southampton, Lancaster and Morecambe, and North Norfolk seaside towns including Cromer and Sheringham.

尽管沿海地区有潜在的好处，但许多港口和沿海城镇都取消了且没有吸引力，并且在经济和社会健康方面表现不佳。这通常是由于建筑环境，废弃的工业和其他遗留地点以及城市领域，绿色空间和滨水区之间缺乏有意义的连通性的结果。海平面上升和沿海侵蚀进一步构成了威胁。这些问题对于英国各地的港口和沿海城镇都是常见的，因此超越了简单的北/南/东/西/西分类或部门。通过有效，可持续和弹性的再生来解决它们，这对于英国政府的净净净和提高议程至关重要。我们的网络+将使用Ukcric开发的概念在蓬勃发展的系统上。我们将采取以系统为基础的基础设施观点；将人们视为将基础设施作为将相互依存的系统联系起来的一种方式，将人们置于愿景的中心，必须将其设计为可持续，包容，安全和弹性。组件系统的复杂性以及驾驶员和焦点的异质性，使得很难优化系统的基础设施系统，甚至通常是朝着更美好的未来迈进。我们将采用视线方法，涉及积极促进不同社区（人，专家，当局，政府，政府，投资者）的当前和潜在的优先事项和潜在的优先事项和潜在的优先事项和潜在的优先事项和潜在的优先事项；然后，探索和开发着集中于沿统一的视线新的共同目标的协同作用。 The activities of the Network+ will be organised through five interdependent strands: 1.
