Tipner West

Portsmouth’s once-in-a-generation opportunity

Tipner West is a unique site that offers the opportunity for thousands of new jobs in the marine sector and new homes for people in Portsmouth. It is a complex site but one where we can create a new gateway to the city that celebrates Portsmouth’s location, heritage and skills.

This opportunity was recognised by central government when Portsmouth was awarded £48.75 million to invest in growth, critical infrastructure, skills and jobs at Tipner West and Horsea Island East.

We have the chance to

Create 58,000 sqm of green marine employment space

Introduce over 4,000 new jobs and training placements

Build good quality new homes that people in Portsmouth can afford and want to live in

Link Tipner West and Horsea Island East with a new bridge for buses, bikes and pedestrians

This area has important environmental protections. It’s also at risk from rising sea levels. You can find out more about the natural habitats and flood risk at Tipner West on the environment page.

As plans for Tipner West develop, Portsmouth’s residents will have an opportunity to share their ideas and provide feedback to the council through public consultations, community events, focus groups and a community panel.
