News: Revised plans for Waverley submitted
Revised plans have been submitted for the Waverley New Community in Rotherham. The 741 acre brownfield site, owned by UK COAL, covers an area bigger than Sheffield city centre and will be transformed into a bustling town of 9,000 people.
UK COAL's property arm, Harworth Estates submitted an outline planning application to Rotherham Metropolitan Borough Council in August 2008 for a sustainable, high density, mixed use community, including 3890 houses, community facilities and green areas.
Following the submission of the original planning application, the masterplan has been revised through a series of monthly workshops with RMBC officers as well as through the RMBC Steering Group, RMBC Design Panel and various meetings with ATLAS - the Housing and Communities Agency's large application advisors to ensure that the scheme addresses a wide range of issues.
As a consequence revisions to the planning application were submitted to the Council in October 2009.
Changes made to the multi-million pound scheme include design improvements, inclusion of allotments and modifications to the transport interchange. Live / work units are now incorporated and new documents have also been submitted as part of the scheme.
The revised proposals will be on public display for information and comment in the AMP Technology Centre from 12 noon to 8pm on Monday November 23 2009.
