Open Space Strategy
The Open Space Strategy finds its roots in ·ÛºìÅ®ÀÉ’s strategic plan, Towards ·ÛºìÅ®ÀÉ at 150, which calls for strategic growth. Planning for that growth, in direct service of our teaching and research missions, brings even greater responsibility as we seek to create the best opportunities and experiences for our students, faculty and staff while continuing to carefully steward the campus land, our increasingly complex infrastructure, and the natural environment around us.
The 2026 Open Space Strategy builds on the 2018 Open Space Strategy, ensuring alignment with current strategic priorities, including the Campus Development Strategy. It will now include the West Campus lands (the former Brescia lands) and respond to evolving campus development, mobility (pedestrians, cycling, vehicles, including transit) patterns, and public realm priorities. The Strategy eaffirms the university’s commitment to a pedestrian priority core campus, integrate current and planned capital projects, and develop a campus mobility strategy in light of changes to the City of London’s Mobility Master Plan and transit strategies.
