The huge scheme has moved one step closer with another public consultation launched
New pictures and updated plans for a new £250 million 'fully walkable' neighbourhood 'under the arches' of the iconic Stockport Viaduct have been released
A first public consultation was held earlier this year which received more than 300 responses. And they are going back to the public for their views on revised plans. That is ahead of the expected submission of a planning application this autumn. The scheme is a key pillar of the ongoing £1 billion transformation of the town centre being led by MDC. The updated masterplan for the 'Stockport 8' scheme says the homes will consist of a 'range of housing types and tenures' to suit people 'at every stage of life' including first time buyers, renters, families and downsizers.
There will also be additional parking spaces car clubs, electric vehicle charging and plenty of cycle parking those behind it say. They are promising to celebrate the town's " rich heritage and character with a plan to reintroduce the historic street pattern and street names. “The first phase of community engagement on Stockport 8 has been crucial in shaping the future of the development, ensuring that the culture and people of Stockport are reflected in what will be the largest site within the overall regeneration plans."
