DISCUSSING THE PROCESSES AND
ISSUES INVOLVED IN THE
DEVELOPMENT OF VISITOR
ATTRACTIONS
• The change of the world demographics has severely
affected the development of tourist attraction
management. Few of the key issues that can be
faced as barriers in the development process are
inability to understand the expectations of the
travelers, insufficient effort to formulate more
cohesive planning and marketing campaigns,
development of local communities, attracting and
retaining employees in tourism industry, building a
tourism based infrastructure which can be used to
provide efficient integrated services that can benefit
by broadening the scope of sustainable tourism and
the best practices of the same

• It is necessary to understand the traveler’s
expectation in order to assess the demographic shift
that have influenced the demand for services.
England has been the choice of many travelers as
they recognise the place and are attracted to it. In
words of Hartmann (2014, p.167), a varied range of
population is currently visiting the UK and these
individuals require their demands to be fulfilled in
order to drop in a good review, because nowadays
reputation speaks of services.the changing travel
patterns of the globalised world is also one the key
factors that is crucial to take into consideration in
order to manage the customer attraction.

• the growing unemployment levels can be tackled by the
government if they plan correctly to create a number of job
opportunities which will be able to ease of the growing
discontent among the locals. The tourism market is itself
fragmented and seasonal to be honest and this means that
there is a potential of high employability for a varied streams
of jobs. The options provide entry level jobs as well. All these
variables has allowed the labour market to attain a dual
characteristic which is a combination of core and peripheral
workforce. This is critical issue that always influence the
development of customer attraction management as there
are not enough individuals to take care of the needs of the
customers simultaneously

• Expectations of the travellers such
as satying in castles. The castles
that can be renovated stand to
provide a chance to increase
customer satisfaction as everyone
dreams to sleep in a castle in a
majestic bed and this wish can be
realised by undertaking refurbishing
projects that can increase the value
as well as attraction of the property.

• Development of local
communities. Effectively
promoting visitor attraction site to
the foreign tourists can help in
maintaining a tourism related
trade and economic equilibrium
all over the country and by
exposing the travellers to the
multitude shades and hues of the
UK culture, the crowd attraction
can be managed.

• Building a tourism based infrastructure. The
tourism sector is already recognised as one of
the money making opportunity for the national
government and this means that it is required
to perform investment activities in the tourism
infrastructure which allows to improve the
overall quality of the public infrastructure. This
also helps in standardizing regulations which
the travel and tourism organisations need to
adhere to and allows in effectively collecting,
processing and disseminating information to
those who require it.

• Enhancing the appeal of the services The
geographical, cultural as well as lingual landscape of
the UK have been identified to be highly attractive
for foreign tourists and this makes it highly appealed
destination for the travelers. The governing bodies
need to understand that tourism planning can be
prioritised by capitalising i the history as well as the
differentiating characteristics if the place and while
some locales are still emerging there are places
where tourism has flourished and helped in
establishing a thriving economic venture for the
locals (Dickinson et al. 2014, p.87).

• Identifying the theme that will engage the visitors Apart
from accommodation the another critical element of travel
and tourism is transportation system which is effective and
economic as well. The normal middle class of tourists do not
have enough money to take a flight as the rich people can.
The issue of accessibility of local attraction sites needs to be
taken up with the stakeholders and by undertaking
consultation and review, there can be formulation of new
legislatives which allow the tourists to have certain leeways
and benefits of using public transport which not only boosts
the economy of the transportation department but also
enhances the probability of satisfying the customer and
promoting a sustainable behaviour among the tourists
