Step Places<\/a> and Bolton at Home<\/a> are working alongside Bolton Council to transform 4.5 acres of a brownfield site into the Moor Lane development consisting of 208 new homes, green spaces and shops<\/h2>\n

Located in Cheadle Square, the Moor Lane development will oversee the construction of apartments, townhouses, significant landscaping and green spaces to the town centre, as part of Bolton\u2019s Towns Fund deal.<\/p>\n

The Moor Lane development spans over three sites. The largest site is the\u00a0vacant bus station just off Moor Lane; the second lies to the east of Blackhorse Street and south of the existing Bolton Job Centre and the third smaller site is to the east of Blackhorse Street, and north of the job centre.<\/p>\n

The Moor Lane development will offer over 82 affordable homes available for rent, shared equity and rent to buy. The remaining 126 homes are a mix of private rented and open market sale. In addition, new cycle paths and improved pedestrian routes will be included.<\/p>\n

New retail units will also be built to compliment the newly improved Bolton Market. It is hoped that the benefits will be felt across Bolton by residents and business owners.<\/p>\n

Regeneration masterplan<\/h3>\n

The Moor Lane development is one of six key intervention areas in the Bolton town centre masterplan. The council have pledged a \u00a3100m fund to acquire, clear and prepare town centre development sites to attract new\u00a0private sector investment.<\/p>\n

This is part of a much wider regeneration<\/a> effort across Bolton. Ultimately the aim is to improve the town by enhancing public areas, green spaces, housing and multi-purpose opportunities. In turn, this will attract greater investment ensuring that Bolton is an attractive and sustainable town<\/a> for generations to come.<\/p>\n

‘The Moor Lane development will bring much needed new high-quality homes, green spaces and public spaces to Bolton’<\/h3>\n

Cllr Martyn Cox, leader of Bolton Council<\/a> has said:<\/p>\n

\u201cThese exciting plans for a major town centre brownfield site are starting to be built following extensive consultation with local residents. The Moor Lane development will bring much needed new high-quality homes, green spaces and public spaces to Bolton.<\/p>\n

“The benefits this development brings to our town are great, both to boost our local economy and create a new neighbourhood in the heart of Bolton.”<\/p>\n

Harry Dhaliwal, managing director of Step Places<\/a> added:<\/p>\n

“We are excited to deliver a sustainable, high quality town centre development which will differentiate itself from other town centre developments by delivering modern 3 storey housing for a range of homeowners.<\/p>\n

“Our scheme has been carefully embedded into the wider town centre master plan and will drive wider benefits for the residents and businesses of Bolton. The connectivity of the location will allow people to benefit from excellent public transport to the wider Greater Manchester boroughs making Bolton an area of choice for new homeowners.”<\/p>\n

‘A\u00a0real opportunity to regenerate and rejuvenate’<\/h3>\n

The chief executive of Bolton at Home<\/a> Jon Lord commented:<\/p>\n

“Working in partnership with Step Places will allow us to deliver a unique offering to the people of Bolton. Delivering schemes across Bolton and the wider area gives us an understanding of what the housing needs are of the communities we work in.<\/p>\n

“Our shared beliefs and principles have allowed us to design a scheme that will bring benefits beyond the initial bricks and mortar investment. Securing planning permission for the development and moving straight on to delivery is testament to the drive and ambition that Bolton at Home and Step Places have for creating a new benchmark in living standards with our joint philosophy securely planted in protecting and enhancing the environment.<\/p>\n

“This new development, right in the heart of Bolton Town Centre is a real opportunity to regenerate and rejuvenate this key strategic location to create a new mixed tenure sustainable neighbourhood that we can all be proud of. Investing in new development opportunities strengthens our business and allows us to invest more in our existing stock as well.\u201d<\/p>\n
