The proposals will see 205 out-dated residential properties, including deck-access maisonettes at Ellerton Walk in Wolverhampton and poor-quality bungalows on Valley Road and Shawbury Road in the Fallings Park area, demolished.
They will be replaced with 188 new two, three and four-bedroom highly energy-efficient homes for rent, as well as increased car parking and improved public open space at the heart of the estate, which will include a children’s play area, green gym and seating.
Phase one of the masterplan will see provision of 98 new homes, while phase two will deliver 83 new properties. The site on Longford Road is earmarked for seven bungalows.
