Non-profit group to build 570 new homes in Knowsley, Merseyside

A not-for-profit housing association has revealed plans to develop up to 570 new homes in Knowsley, Merseyside, a recent news report in the local media has been able to reveal.

Development plans put forward by KHT also include 251 homes for shared ownership and outright sale, as part of the total 570 new homes being delivered across the borough by the First Ark Group, over the next three years.

Each KHT project aims to regenerate and develop the area in which it is situated, providing employment opportunities, quality housing and growth for its occupants, and ensuring the continual success of neighbouring communities.

The plans include the Extra Care housing development at Bluebell Park, Huyton, which comprises 122 apartments for residents aged 55 and over.

Once construction is completed, Bluebell Park will provide onsite facilities such as a community centre, as well as tailor-made care for its individual residents. Built to ‘HAPPI’ design principles, the properties will also incorporate eco-friendly features into each home’s specification to reduce energy bills.

Every construction company that’s actively involved in a new housing development scheme should also already have in place (or seriously consider implementing) solid and reliable time and attendance and access control solutions, designed to meet the security needs of such an extensive site.
