EQUANS<\/a> has landed a \u00a335m contract to deliver a new sustainable housing development in Winsford, Cheshire<\/h2>\n

EQUANS will deliver a mixed-tenure scheme of 268 homes, as part of a wider partnership that includes QWEST, Cheshire West and Chester Council<\/a> and the Riverside Group.<\/p>\n

The new homes will be available for open market sale, shared ownership<\/a>, and affordable rent.<\/p>\n

The consortium has secured Homes England Accelerated Construction Funding to deliver the project.<\/p>\n

EQUANS has also worked alongside environmental assessors to progress an energy strategy that exceeds Cheshire West and Chester Council\u2019s planning policy and will support its wider net zero carbon ambitions.<\/p>\n

This includes the use of enhanced building fabrics, highly efficient heating systems and photovoltaic (PV) solar panels across every plot to optimise sustainability.<\/p>\n

Several other additional ecological enhancements will also be incorporated into the site, including the creation of new ponds and seven new grass playing pitches for the community.<\/p>\n

\u2018Working towards a net zero carbon future\u2019<\/h3>\n

Tim Wood, regional managing director at EQUANS UK & Ireland (North West), said: \u201cWe\u2019re delighted to be working with key partners to deliver this innovative housing scheme, creating a new, low carbon neighbourhood for the Cheshire community.<\/p>\n

\u201cSustainability and modern construction methods<\/a> are at the core of this scheme and the heart of our business strategy \u2013 as we look to support our partners embrace the energy transition we face and work towards a net zero carbon future.\u201d<\/p>\n

Ben Cummins, managing director at QWEST, commented: \u201cQWEST is proud to deliver new affordable homes to the area, bringing both our shareholder\u2019s skills to bear as we continue on our journey towards net carbon zero<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is the second scheme for QWEST homes, and we will continue to ensure local supply chain and employment are key drivers in this and future schemes.\u201d<\/p>\n

Nick Jones, Riverside\u2019s director of development, added: \u201cWe are delighted to be the preferred registered provider partner to deliver 100 affordable homes in an area of high demand in Cheshire.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe properties will be a mix of two and three-bedroom properties with gardens and off-street parking, consisting of 47 rent to buy and 53 shared ownership which will enable people to get on the housing ladder and own their home.\u201d<\/p>\n
