Plans for a 160-home town centre ‘village’ have been submitted – with bosses aiming to transform five undeveloped sites in Bolton town centre. Developers Capital & Centric say Neighbourhood Bolton will be ‘the first of a new type of residential community’.
In a planning application submitted in the past week they say the development, broadly split into Trinity Gateway, close to the bus and rail interchange and Trinity Village, to be built on four parcels of land on the other side of Bradshawgate. Capital & Centric’s vision is for ‘design-led town houses boasting distinctive, high quality, sustainable architecture and set around green streets with community-focused shared amenity spaces’.
A design and access statement, published with the plans, said: “Neighbourhood Bolton will not only deliver much-needed affordable, family homes on vacant brownfield sites, but it will play a vital role in making the town centre a more vibrant place to live, work and visit. It will also complement the existing regeneration projects in the town centre and beyond.
