Walker Riverside is one of the main City Council regeneration areas along with Byker Ouseburn and the West End . It lies to the east of Ouseburn beyond St Peters Basin and stretches along the river Tyne to the North Tyneside boundary. A ONE sponsored initiative, River Tyne North Bank, covering the industrial part of Walker Riverside and a large area of North Tyneside riverside including Wallsend town centre, is currently in its early stages.

Walker Riverside Area Action Plan

Newcastle City Council adopted the Walker Riverside Area Action Plan (WRAAP) on 4 April 2007 as a local development document within the city's Local Development Framework. The Plan, appendices and a copy of the adoption statement are available to download on Newcastle City Council’s website -www.newcastle.gov.uk/core.nsf/a/walkerriversideaction  and the Walker Riverside website –www.walker-riverside.co.uk
