A vision to create modern, smart homes on a riverside setting in Grimsby’s town centre has moved a step forward.
Following discussions between North East Lincolnshire Council and Homes England, central government funding has been agreed to allow investigative work to take place at Alexandra Dock. This will focus on six-acres of council-owned land behind the emerging Horizon OnSide Youth Zone and next to the remodelled Garth Lane bridge and walkway.
Around two weeks of specialist contract work, which starts next month, will determine the land type and what is beneath the surface – essential investigations ahead of preparing the site further.
