In order to assist this process, the Welsh Development Agency in partnership with Blaenau Gwent County Borough Council, commissioned the urban design and landscape architecture practice Macgregor Smith and CBAT to develop an Urban Design Strategy and Masterplan. David Watson lives and works in Brighton and through his work he aims to achieve a physical and conceptual link between place, design and materials. The appointed artist David Watson, is expected to be working closely alongside the Landscape Architects and develop works integral to the proposed environmental improvements. This could include surface treatments, railings (especially to Welfare Park), seating and viewing points. The work should take in consideration the location of existing formal and informal routes, the landscape details and existing structures such as the railway arches adjoining the site
