Newport
St Modwen has been granted outline planning consent by Newport City Council
for their proposals for the transformation of a 600-acre former steelworks
site at Llanwern, into a £1bn sustainable, mixed use development,
comprising housing, office and industrial space, public open space and a
range of community facilities. |
|
Redevelopment
of this site, which was formerly part of Corus’ steelworks site, is
expected to take 20 years to complete. It will include 4,000 new homes and
approx 1.5 million sq ft of office, factory and warehouse space. The initial
phase of the infrastructure works should commence later this year with the
first dwellings and employment buildings being developed next year. |
