What is the key question for the investigation in Cardiff Bay?
How successful has the regeneration of Cardiff Bay been?

It focuses on the
transformation
from a
coal-exporting
port to a
redeveloped urban
area.
What was the role of Cardiff Docks during WW1 and WW2?
They were vital for
coal export
and had
bustling
activity second only to
London
docks.
What led to the decline of coal exports in Cardiff Bay?
The decline in coal demand post-WW2.
What was the condition of Cardiff Bay by 1987?
The area was
rundown
due to the
cessation
of
coal exports.
What organization was established to revitalize
Cardiff Bay
?
The
Cardiff Bay
Development
Corporation
(CBDC).
What is urban regeneration?
Revitalising
and
improving brownfield
sites to enhance
economic
,
social
, and
environmental
conditions.
What is the aim of urban regeneration?
To rejuvenate declining urban areas, foster sustainable development, attract investment, and improve quality of life.
What are the impacts of the regeneration strategy on the economy, physical environment, and perceptions of a place?
Economy
: Attracts
investment
and increases
trade.
Physical
Environment: Improves
infrastructure
and
aesthetics.
Perceptions
: Enhances the
image
of the
area
, making it more
appealing
to
residents
and
visitors.
What construction was made to improve
Cardiff Bay
?

fresh water
for safe docking of
ships.
Why was the barrage necessary for Cardiff Bay?
It allows for
boats
to
dock
safely and helps manage
mud flaps.
How does the construction of transport hubs impact
Cardiff Bay
?
It allows for easy access between
rural
areas of
Wales
and encourages local
shopping.
What decision was made regarding Cardiff's status in Wales?
Cardiff was made the
capital
of
Wales

How does the Principality Stadium contribute to Cardiff Bay?
It attracts
sporting
fans and boosts
tourism
in Wales.
What are the economic benefits of the Principality Stadium?
It allows for more
income
through
ticket
sales and
tourism-related
activities.
What is the initial risk rating formula used in the risk assessment?
Initial risk
rating =
Likelihood
x Severity.
What is the likelihood rating for being hit by a vehicle when crossing roads in the city center?
2.
What is the severity rating for being hit by a vehicle when crossing roads in the city center?
5.
What actions were taken to minimize the risk of being
hit
by a
vehicle
?
Use pedestrian crossings
,
look both ways
,
and stay in data collection groups.
What is the likelihood rating for weather-related risks?
3.
What is the severity rating for weather-related risks?
5.
What is the primary data collected during the enquiry?
Access to
services
,
litter camps
,
environmental quality
assessments,
questionnaires
,
photographs
,
field sketches
, and
emotion
/
smell
sketches.
What is the secondary data collected during the enquiry?
Index of
decay
, crime
indicators
, and
land use
survey.
What are the two data collection techniques used in the enquiry?
Environmental Quality Assessment (EQA)
Measures qualities along a transect.
Scores on a scale from 1 to 5.
Systematic sampling method.
Pedestrian Count
Counts pedestrians using a stopwatch.
Repeated at different times for reliability.
Convenience and stratified sampling methods.
What does the
EQA
score represent?
The
total
score shows how
good
an area of the city is based on
measured
qualities.
How was the pedestrian count conducted?
By using a stopwatch to count pedestrians passing by over a set time.
What was the hypothesis for the pedestrian count?
There would be a
wide
range of
land
use and
employment
opportunities for
local
residents.
What does the bar graph show in the investigation?
The number of
pedestrians
in a given area over a span of
5
minutes.
What does the radar diagram represent?
The
good
and
negative
aspects of the area based on various
variables.
How was the radar diagram plotted?
Using
Google Sheets
to represent
data
clearly.
Why was the radar chart chosen for data presentation?
It clearly represents the main
qualities
of the data in an
easy-to-interpret
format.
What could improve the radar diagram presentation?
Including more
areas
to better
understand
shifts in
variables.
How do the results from the investigation relate to the hypothesis?
The results show a range of
land
use and
employment opportunities
, supporting the hypothesis.
What limitations were identified in the radar diagram?
The curves can be
misleading
and may
distort
the data.
What additional data could have been collected to support the hypothesis?
More specific
questions in interviews to gain
deeper insights.
How could the fieldwork investigation be improved?
By
repeating
methods at different times of
year
or
locations.
Do the weaknesses in data collection methods affect the reliability of conclusions?
Yes
, but they do not necessarily render the conclusions
unreliable.
What is essential to recognize when interpreting findings from urban regeneration studies?
The inherent uncertainties and complexities of urban environments.
