Construction Trends in Blackpool

Blackpool is seeking a development partner for a 90.4 million pound housing-led regeneration of Central Drive, expected to bring around 230 homes. This sits within the wider Central Housing Regeneration Area Framework, a 90 million pound Homes England-funded programme covering hundreds of affordable homes, including around 200 at Grange Park and a possible 100 on the former Rigby Road tram depot site. A separate 15.3 million pound Town Centre Access Scheme is improving the interchange and walking, cycling and bus access. Away from these schemes, established residential areas keep a steady flow of extensions and loft conversions.
