A £250 million project to regenerate a council depot to create a major mixed-use scheme has been boosted by £5 million in new funding.
Brewers Yard in Wolverhampton will see the development of up to 1,300 houses and apartments and about 60,000 sq ft of new retail and commercial space.
West Midlands Combined Authority has agreed to support the project with £5 million to kickstart the first phase of work, namely the construction of almost 600 new homes. This capital will pay for the demolition of the existing buildings at the site and the clean-up of the land so it is ready for redevelopment.
