Developer’s ‘bold’ vision to create a family neighbourhood in the centre of Bolton

A developer has released its vision for a ‘family neighbourhood’ to be built on four brownfield parcels of land in Bolton town centre. Capital & Centric say they will submit a planning application to Bolton Council later in the year ‘to deliver a new suburban community in the heart of Bolton’s town centre’.

The developers have released more details on Neighbourhood: Bolton, which they say is a ‘new concept to re-imagine outdated approaches to suburban design’. An aerial view of the land earmarked for homes shows four plots either side of the Bradshawgate corridor with the largest area next to the bus interchange and another significant parcel of land near St Peter’s church.

Capital & Centric, said: “The new Bolton community will feature sustainable, design-led homes; community gardens; running tracks and play streets, spanning a cluster of four brownfield plots on Bradshawgate and Breightmet Street. “Neighbourhood’ is our new game-changing suburban homes concept we plan to expand to towns across the UK, raising the design bar for unloved, brownfield sites with bold design; low-carbon homes; and innovative shared features that help build a true community.”
