The job is set to finish at the end of 2024

Designed by EPR Architects, others working on the scheme include Gardiner and Theobald as QS, Gleeds as client project manager while Metropolitan and Thames Valley Housing Association is primary tenant and purchaser.

The job is being developed by English Cities Fund, a joint venture between Homes England, funder Legal & General and Morgan Sindall-owned Muse Developments.

Morgan Sindall said it was using a number of offsite initiatives to speed up construction and reduce the amount of scaffolding needed on the job which is expected to finish at the end of 2024.

As well as housing, the scheme will also include 8,000 sq ft of commercial and retail space.
