Borough Market
Year
2024
Borough Market is a historic market and a key tourist destination, attracting a high volume of daily visitors, with numbers expected to continue growing. To support this growth and enhance the overall visitor experience, Borough Market is developing a long-term vision and strategy for the market and its surrounding public realm.
Space Syntax was commissioned to deliver an evidence-based movement assessment to survey the movement patterns of pedestrians and vehicles, evaluate key opportunities and forecast the impact of public realm design changes on visitor activity patterns.
Our findings provided a clear, data-driven understanding of Borough Market, its potential and challenges. The insights were instrumental in engaging key stakeholders and illustrating how future plans could positively shape the experience of visitors and local people.
The study will inform the creation of a comprehensive, long-term strategy for Borough Market that supports growth, benefits the community and celebrates the market’s unique character.
