Survey work is to begin on a major North Liverpool site earmarked for more than 1,000 homes.
In March 2021, Liverpool Council agreed on plans to move a development plan forward for Stonebridge Cross in Croxteth, with a view to building 1,200 homes on the site. An update from Mark Bourgeois, interim Strategic Director - City Development, has detailed how the local authority is now procuring consultants to progress the site towards an outline planning application.
Liverpool Council has held the site since acquiring it from Homes England in 2014 and has been facilitating the creation of over 300,000 square feet of business and commercial space there. The 55-acre site is located on the East Lancashire Road (A580), one of the main thoroughfares into Liverpool.
