A design brief to regenerate Hull’s Western Docklands has secured consent from Hull City Council.Proposals include a new cruise ship terminal at Albert and William Wright Dock as well as housing to the south of Wellington Street West.Also, a medical technology centre could be built at the Smith and Nephew site, once the company relocates to a facility in Melton.Councillor Paul Drake-Davis, regeneration portfolio holder, said the Western Docklands scheme would involve “a new chapter for this part of the city”.The approved plans outline how regeneration could look in each part of the area between Hessle Road and Albert Dock.
