A major housing development is due to get underway in Telford next year, a report to council leaders says.
The Hem will bring 350 new houses in The Nedge after councillors voted by seven to two in January to grant permission to develop the 37.25 hectares site.
Members of the cabinet are set to receive an update on progress on the land dead at their meeting on Thursday. Council officers say progress is being made. The council has responsibility to bring forward the sites under the Land Deal and provide ‘shovel ready’ sites available for development for both residential and employment uses.
