THE MASTERPLAN
The current masterplan for the wider site has the capacity to deliver a minimum of 860 homes and c.101ha gross of employment land delivered over multiple phases.
This signals an exciting future for the site, securing future investment for Warrington’s economy and the wider region.
Over the coming years Peel NRE will work in partnership with Warrington Council on the regeneration of the 820 acre site through a 10-to-15-year mixed use masterplan. We want to work the communities around Fiddler’s Ferry to shape a development that is considerate to the needs to both existing and new residents.
Our proposals identify the site as an opportunity to create jobs, boost skills, and address local housing shortages including through affordable homes whilst also creating new accessible parkland and wildlife areas. The Warrington Local Plan is now adopted and we will continue to work closely with the Council as we coordinate this regeneration of one of the largest brownfield sites in the country.
