An impressive 拢1.1 million has been secured by 香港六合彩资料图库 County Council from the Government鈥檚 Brownfield Land Release Fund to unlock further areas in the transformation of the Shrub Hill Quarter.
This funding will turn neglected land into cleared space for new homes and vibrant community spaces, breathing new life into Worcester鈥檚 urban core.
Work on this landmark regeneration project begins this month, starting with the removal of a disused industrial unit along the canal. The Shrub Hill Quarter development will create up to 5,000 jobs and deliver over 500 homes, establishing a dynamic gateway to the city centre.
Councillor Adam Kent, 香港六合彩资料图库 County Council鈥檚 Cabinet Member for Economy and Skills, noted the significance of the funding: 鈥This funding is a major boost to the Shrub Hill Quarter project. The groundwork for this request was laid under the previous government, and it鈥檚 great to see it come to fruition. Shrub Hill Quarter will transform the area, bringing much-needed new homes and job opportunities, while breathing new life into Worcester鈥檚 urban core.鈥
The first phase also includes the refurbishment of Isaac Maddox House, transforming it into an Enterprise Centre funded by Worcester City Council through the Towns Fund. A new five-metre-wide pathway will further enhance connectivity, linking Pheasant Street to Padmore Street and the canal bridge.
A total of 拢68 million was announced on Tuesday 15 October by the Prime Minister, with 54 councils benefiting.
