en.Wedoany.com Reported - UK developer Capital&Centric has recently unveiled the final plans for the redevelopment of The Springs shopping centre in Buxton, a project involving a £100 million investment. The planning application has been submitted to High Peak Borough Council. The project will deliver 332 rental homes, along with spaces for independent bars, shops, and cafés, and will also include improved access routes from the railway station.
Capital&Centric Joint Managing Director John Moffat said: "Over a thousand people engaged with us across various community consultations, so it's fantastic to be able to submit plans that have been co-designed with local residents and businesses. The final vision complements what is already great about the town and is all the better for being shaped by the people who know and love it best." Based on public feedback, the redevelopment project has incorporated facilities such as a residents' gym, a mini cinema, and co-working spaces.
The project will open up the River Wye, creating green public spaces for riverside dining and events, and feature a public square with abundant planting. Councillor Damien Greenhalgh, Deputy Leader of High Peak Borough Council and Executive Member for Regeneration, Tourism and Leisure, said: "This is a landmark moment for Buxton. After seven years of work, the council is delighted to reach a significant milestone with the submission of the town centre regeneration plans."
The redevelopment scheme originated with £6.6 million from the government's Future High Streets Fund, combined with the council's own £4.2 million funding, which enabled the council to purchase The Springs shopping centre and appoint Capital&Centric as its development partner. Councillor Greenhalgh stated that the plans have been shaped by local people, and the council has listened to feedback and acted to reflect the needs of residents and businesses, addressing concerns regarding parking and affordable housing.
