Ellesmere Port could be "truly transformed" by a multi-million-pound regeneration project which has been given the green light by council leaders.
Ellesmere Port could receive £10m in investment after Cheshire West and Chester Council’s ruling cabinet backed an application to the Government’s £4.8bn Levelling Up Fund. If approved, the project would build on recent investment in the new Portal Offices, the relocation of the bus station and the expansion of Action Transport Theatre.
The council estimates that the development will boost the local economy by £1.6m a year, with 200 temporary jobs generated by construction and supply chain demands. A further 30 permanent jobs could become available in the town centre.
