New Brighton scheme gains planning approval
Jamie Carpenter, Regen.net, 26 August 2009
A scheme to regenerate the Merseyside seaside resort of New Brighton has been given the go-ahead by Wirral Metropolitan Borough Council.
The scheme, intended to include a Morrison’s supermarket, a 66-bed Travelodge hotel, cinema, bars, restaurants and public spaces, had already gained outline planning approval.
But Wirral Metropolitan Borough Council last night approved the final reserved matters application for the second phase of the scheme.
The scheme’s developer Neptune Developments said it expected the project to be completed in 2011.
Neptune Developments director Rob Mason said: "This is great news for both New Brighton and Neptune as we are now all systems go to complete our vision for this once great seaside resort."
I'm totally underwhelmed. Sounds clone town to me.
