We’re thrilled that our plans for a mixed-use development on land in the East Riding of Yorkshire have been given the go-ahead.
The proposals for the land at York Road, Market Weighton include 120 new market and affordable homes, up to 55,000 sq ft of employment development and up to 14,000 sq ft of other commercial and community space, with associated landscaping, drainage, and other infrastructure.
Separate plans submitted by Lidl for a food store with associated access, car parking, landscaping and other infrastructure were granted permission in February.
The site is allocated in the adopted East Riding Local Plan under two references, Policy MW-B for housing development and Policy MW-F for employment development. The combined site also benefits from draft allocations in the emerging East Riding Local Plan under the same policy references.
Harry Jackson, Regional Manager at Richborough, said: “Congratulations to all involved in this successful outcome which follows extensive public consultation. The proposed development will help meet Market Weighton’s housing need and deliver employment and retail uses to contribute towards the Borough’s economy. We now look forward to marketing our element of the site and securing a development partner.”
The consultancy team included: Alice Routledge, George Baines and Paul Nellist at Asteer Planning, Gerard Mckinney at Hub Transport Planning, Paul Smith at PJS Consulting, Ben Williams at nineteen47, Claire Meddings at BWB Consulting, Chris Shaw at Brooks Ecological, Jack Jewell and Rob Mayers at Tyler Grange and Oliver Martin at Bickley Martin.
