The council has granted planning permission to build 485 energy efficient, low carbon homes in Pendleton.

The plans are part of the next phase of the Pendleton regeneration project by SP+ and Lovell Together, who aim to create more energy efficient homes in the area.

The submitted plans include a mix of one and two-bed apartments and two, three and four-bed homes. Several properties have also been designed for older living with more than 140 homes for rent and shared ownership.

The major redevelopment of Clarendon Park will also play a central part in the regeneration project. The regeneration of Clarendon Park will see the creation of community allotments, several new play areas, a multi-use games area and a skatepark, as well as enhanced pedestrian and cycle routes.

Tahreen Shad, regional partnerships director at Lovell Partnerships, said: “This latest phase is set to be one of the greenest residential schemes in Salford with the transformation of Clarendon Park playing an integral part, alongside the creation of hundreds of new homes.

“Our aim is to build communities through industry-leading partnerships, and the regeneration of Pendleton is the perfect example of the significant results that this approach can deliver.

“We will also continue to work with Salford City Skills and Salford Build Up to engage with workers of the future offering apprenticeships and job opportunities. Social value is an integral part of the scheme which has been a collaborative effort with stakeholders, and I am looking forward to seeing construction start this year.”

In total, 30 per cent of the homes in the new scheme have been listed as “affordable” housing.

This next phase will go towards the project’s aim of creating more than 2,000 new and refurbished properties in the Pendleton regeneration.
