A public consultation has been launched on plans to transform the former site of a Dorset power station into a huge “waterfront quarter” providing up to 900 new homes.
FuturePlaces, a venture owned by Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole (BCP) Council, has been commissioned by the local authority to bring forward recommendations for what it says is the largest brownfield regeneration project in the South West.
The 40-acre site in Hamworthy, also owned by BCP Council, is the former location of Holes Bay power station, but has now lain empty for more than 25 years.
