City of Doncaster Council is working with a developer on a £400 million transformation of the Doncaster Waterfront, aiming to establish a digital and creative hub. The proposed “Digital Cluster” includes a digital arena, film studio, hotel, multistorey car park, and around 300 residential units, including senior living accommodation.
The project is part of Doncaster’s 25-year City Centre Strategy, which the council recently approved. The development is expected to attract investment, create jobs, and support Doncaster’s goal of becoming a centre for digital technology. Remediation work on the brownfield site is already underway, funded by the UK Government and South Yorkshire Mayoral Combined Authority (SYMCA).
