The Space\u00a0Plan analysed the supply of internal building spaces on\u00a0the Campus and the anticipated space needs for each\u00a0program, faculty, and department. The report draws\u00a0on information from stakeholder interviews, as well as\u00a0enrolment statistics, and existing space and allocation\u00a0plans. Its conclusions reflect projected growth to 4,000\u00a0full time equivalent students by 2027, and projects\u00a0the anticipated growth and space needs across each\u00a0program. The Campus Space Plan Report should be read\u00a0in conjunction with the Campus Master Plan.<\/p>\n<h2>Additional Studies<\/h2>\n<p>The Campus Master Plan provides clear direction for\u00a0the implementation of meaningful buildings, and for the\u00a0creation of great quality places as well as a pedestrian-oriented\u00a0and accessible public realm. In addition, the\u00a0Campus Master Plan recommends further detailed studies\u00a0to be undertaken in the future that are necessary in\u00a0realizing the full Vision of the Plan.<\/p>\n<p>To support future development and implement the Plan\u2019s\u00a0recommendations, there are a range of studies and\u00a0reports which can appropriately guide the design of new\u00a0buildings and spaces. Some of these studies will likely\u00a0be tailored to specific development applications, and as\u00a0such, should be undertaken at an appropriate time to best\u00a0support those projects, while others will provide longterm\u00a0strategic guidance to support the implementation of\u00a0the Campus Master Plan.<\/p>\n<h3>Campus Infrastructure Studies<\/h3>\n<p>As mentioned in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.brandonu.ca\/campusplan\/implementation\/campus-space-plan-summary\/\">Campus Space Plan<\/a>, further studies examining\u00a0the Campus\u2019 infrastructure from structural, mechanical\u00a0and electrical perspectives are recommended, in addition\u00a0to targeted functional programs that would address\u00a0the specific strategic growth plans and requirements\u00a0of each Faculty and School, as well as certain other\u00a0important stakeholders including the University\u2019s student\u00a0body and affiliated services as well as the University\u2019s\u00a0administration.<\/p>\n<h3>Transportation Analysis Report<\/h3>\n<p>A report to examine mode share, circulation, traffic\u00a0volumes, parking supply, transit ridership, cycling\u00a0facilities and other components of the campus movement\u00a0system will inform future parking demand, identify\u00a0opportunities through development for greater multimodal\u00a0transportation integration, and provide analysis to\u00a0support efficient operation of new and existing roads.<\/p>\n<h3>Utilities Analysis Report\/Infrastructure Plan<\/h3>\n<p>A assessment of the functional servicing capacity of\u00a0existing infrastructure will help to inform the analysis of\u00a0the feasibility of new development, and identify potential\u00a0infrastructure improvements. This can be complemented\u00a0with an Infrastructure Plan that identifies improvements\u00a0required to support the continued operation and\u00a0expansion of the campus, along with appropriate phasing.<\/p>\n<h3>Housing Strategy<\/h3>\n<p>A survey of existing housing assets and analysis of\u00a0anticipated housing demand can inform appropriate\u00a0planning and phasing of new residential development.<\/p>\n<h3>Open Space Master Plan and Programming<\/h3>\n<p>An Open Space Master Plan builds on the structure and\u00a0recommendations of the Plan\u2019s Open Space Framework,\u00a0and provides a greater level on the design of each of\u00a0the proposed open spaces, along with suggested design\u00a0improvements to enhance or re-purpose existing spaces\u00a0and to support increased use and greater connectivity\u00a0and visibility. It is recommended that this study also\u00a0examine programming strategies to promote efficient\u00a0use of open spaces, as well as opportunities to increase\u00a0community and year round use.<\/p>\n<h3>Wayfinding and Signage Strategy<\/h3>\n<p>This document can provide strategies to improve campus\u00a0legibility and identity, facilitate connectivity and access,\u00a0and foster a greater sense of place through cohesive\u00a0signage and campus mapping.<\/p>\n<h3>Market Feasibility and Economic Analysis<\/h3>\n<p>In support of development opportunities, financial\u00a0Proforma analysis should be undertaken, including\u00a0analysing the market absorption rate of potential uses on\u00a0Campus (retail, residential, and office).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Campus Space Plan As part of this Campus Master Plan process, a Campus\u00a0Space Plan was undertaken to inform and support the\u00a0Plan and long term implementation strategy.
