have received planning approval for the first phase of its Collyhurst regeneration plans \u2013 part of Manchester\u2019s \u00a34bn Victoria North project<\/h2>\n<p>The plans, concerning Collyhurst Village, will see 244 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/planning-construction-news\/500-homes-brownfield-housing-fund\/91150\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">new homes built<\/a> \u2013 including 100 high-quality homes for social rent.<\/p>\n<p>The proposals comprise a mix of townhouses and apartments intended to cater for a mix of families, young professionals and older residents as FEC and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/mmc-news\/modern-methods-of-construction-8\/87623\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">MCC looks to create a sustainable neighbourhood<\/a> for current and future generations.<\/p>\n<p>The\u00a01.3 hectare\u00a0New\u00a0Collyhurst\u00a0Village Park will create a new public green space at the heart of the neighbourhood, connected to homes through a network of green links.<\/p>\n<p>More than 450 trees will be planted across the development with any trees lost during enabling works replaced on a two for one basis.<\/p>\n<p>The plan for the area includes 2,000 sq ft of commercial and retail space that will be designed to work for local people and vastly improve services in the area.<\/p>\n<p>The planning approval follows extensive consultation with the local community to help guide the principles of the regeneration programme, where residents overwhelmingly supported the project and were positive that the investment would meet their needs.<\/p>\n<p>The agreed plans for\u00a0Collyhurst\u00a0Village come soon after the joint venture submitted a separate planning application to deliver 30 additional <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/energy-news\/social-housing-in-manchester\/94743\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">new homes for social rent<\/a> in South\u00a0Collyhurst\u00a0\u2013 another of the seven emerging neighbourhoods that are part of the Victoria North programme.<\/p>\n<p>The investment in\u00a0Collyhurst\u00a0represents part of the first phase of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.manchester.gov.uk\/downloads\/download\/5719\/strategic_regeneration_framework_east\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Strategic Regeneration Framework<\/a> for Victoria North, which will deliver up to 15,000 new homes while rejuvenating brownfield and underutilised land over the next 15 years.<\/p>\n<p>Enabling works began in May and are expected to run until autumn.<\/p>\n<p>A start on site is expected towards the end of the year.<\/p>\n<h3>A significant moment for the\u00a0Collyhurst\u00a0community<\/h3>\n<p>Gavin White, Manchester City Council\u2019s executive member for housing and regeneration, said: \u201cThis approval represents the first major investment in\u00a0Collyhurst\u00a0in 50 years and we know from speaking extensively to local people that the new homes and park are very welcome \u2013 and I\u2019d like to thank local people for taking the time to be part of the consultations that have helped us get to this point.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe exciting part can now get underway \u2013 building the\u00a0affordable\u00a0homes that we have promised and transforming the neighbourhood for local people that will benefit generations of Manchester people in the years to come.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Victoria Hunter, development manager at FEC, added: \u201cOur plans for both developments in Collyhurst promise to rejuvenate local housing and amenities, breathing new life into the area.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are acutely aware of the long-term challenges posed by issues such as poor connectivity and access to green space, and our plans reflect that.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cToday\u2019s planning approval is a big step forward in terms of rectifying those issues, and we look forward to working with\u00a0local residents\u00a0to create a vibrant and inclusive future for\u00a0Collyhurst\u00a0as part of Victoria North.\u201d<\/p>\n<div
