Plans to build new homes, a study centre for Falmouth University and student accommodation at the Pydar development in Truro, have been given the green light.
Cornwall Council has approved the first of two Reserved Matters applications for the development in the Cornish city. The applications provide more detail on the development and follows the granting of Outline Planning Consent for the whole of the site in November 2019.
Following a constructive planning process, working closely with the City Council and the local community, Treveth Development LLP’s proposal to transform the Pydar site into a "vibrant and sustainable mixed-use development", on behalf of Cornwall Council, has received the green light. This approval reflects the public’s support for Pydar – with over 90% of local respondents supporting the scheme – as well as the positive endorsement for Pydar from Truro City Council in March 2023.
