Trent Basin is part of Nottingham Waterside, one of the three major regeneration areas of Nottingham City.
Trent Basin, which is now in the third phase of development, comprises the development of circa 300 new homes and apartments to the east of Nottingham City centre.

In 2019, Nottingham City Council adopted the Waterside Supplementary Planning Document (SPD).
The SPD set out the Council's vision for the Waterside as it was beginning to flourish as a new mixed neighbourhood.
Within the SPD there is a requirement for a continuous riverside footpath and cycle path from Colwick Park to Trent Bridge.

The Severn Trent Community Fund (STCF) is a £10m grant funding pot created to support local projects, charities, and groups in the Severn Trent region.
The fund is designed to support community wellbeing, and encompasses People, Place and Environment, with a preference for applications that have a connection to water.
Charities, community interest companies and local authorities are the bodies eligible to make applications.

This new public realm will also extend the footpath across Trent Lane to the proposed path to the east, creating a continuous walking and cycling route separated from vehicles.
By creating a new pedestrian and cycle route across the basin mouth heading west, residents of Trent Basin, along with those occupying other new developments along Trent Lane, will have a car free route directly from Trent Lane to Poulton Drive.

This new pedestrian friendly route opens up a direct link to Flo Skatepark (an indoor skatepark, music and events venue) and other local businesses.
Additionally, a new pontoon and access to the basin for water sports will be created, unlocking access to the 1-acre inland basin for the first time since it fell out of use in the 1990s.
