£105m Humber housing development recommended for approval

A proposed £105m development on the south bank of the Humber comprising more than 500 homes is recommended for approval at a meeting tomorrow.Beal Homes submitted plans to North East Lincolnshire Council last year for the 57-acre site in Immingham.The reserved matters planning application for 525 homes, with landscaping, areas of public open space and associated works, on land off Stallingborough Road, will go before North East Lincolnshire’s Planning Committee on 12 June 2024, with planning officers recommending approval.The proposed development will comprise a range of two-, three- and four-bedroom homes, and is expected to support major investment in and around Immingham.Chris Murphy, land director at East Yorkshire-based Beal, said: “The site is allocated for housing under North East Lincolnshire Council’s Local Plan and already has outline planning approval for 525 homes, so this application is seeking full approval for the detailed layout and design.”The development will enhance the quality, availability and choice of homes in the area, to meet increasing demand in a community benefiting from significant investment and job creation.”
