Help shape the future of East Bank Urban Village proposals

CONVERSATION OF DEVELOPMENT ENCOURAGED

- By ANDREW SPENCE

HULL City Council has launched a “Community Conversation”, seeking the views of residents, businesses, and other stakeholders, on the East Bank Urban Village project.

Earlier this year, the council announced it had secured ECF (English Cities Fund) as the lead development partner for the ambitious development.

The project, which is set to add around 850 new homes to the city centre, will transform the eastern bank of the River Hull which is largely comprised uninspiring brownfield land.

The project seeks to regenerate the stretch of the riverside between the Myton Swing Bridge and Drypool Bridge which is currently worlds apart from the western side of the river which boasts Hull's Old Town and Museums Quarter.
