Work begins on major affordable housing development in Huddersfield

The site, off Hart Street, is close to a former mill and Urban Group is carrying out the remediation phase of the project before starting infrastructure works. The scheme comprises a mix of two and three-bed semi-detached affordable homes, as well as associated landscaping, access, roads, and sewer installation. The development is expected to be completed in spring 2024.

Rick Long, Head of Housing (Construction) at Urban Group, said: “We worked closely with Yorkshire Housing and architects, Brewster Bye, during the planning process and look forward to delivering a development which will help to address the shortage of affordable housing within easy reach of Huddersfield town centre.”
