Thousands of homes to be built changing the face of Wirral

A massive plan which will see huge numbers of homes built in Wirral has been approved.

Wirral Council’s draft Local Plan, a document laying out plans for thousands of homes to be built in the borough between now and 2037, was passed at Wednesday's meeting of the authority’s cross-party Policy and Resources Committee.

Included in the document are proposals which will transform Birkenhead and see development focused on brownfield sites in the east of the borough, with the green belt protected. The homes plan includes the huge Wirral Waters project, a series of schemes which will see up to 13,000 homes built over the next 25 years along the Birkenhead docklands.
