Plans for the next part of one of Europe's largest redevelopments which has transformed part of Nottingham could see the scheme become even bigger. The newest stage of the Trent Basin redevelopment would see more than 110 homes built on the north bank of the River Trent to the west of Trent Lane, if Nottingham City Council's planning committee follows a recommendation to approve the scheme on April 19.
The site, which spans 3.7 hectares of former industrial land, has been mostly cleared and levelled with the exception of two groups of industrial warehouse buildings off Poulton Drive and Daleside Road. Developer Blueprint Limited, which is partially owned by Nottingham City Council, previously submitted a hybrid application, which seeks full permission for 110 houses and outline permission for an unspecified further number of properties.
The new homes would add to the huge number of eco-friendly homes that have been built or are in the pipeline at Trent Basin and elsewhere in the 250-acre Waterside Redevelopment Zone, which is one of the largest development areas in Europe according to the developer. Nottingham City Council has previously stated it wants to transform the area into a new sustainable residential community over the next decade.
