Wolverhampton Council Approves 99 New Bungalows

Thurrock councillors have approved a plan for 45 new homes on a former scrapyard site in Grays, with support from the community citing the need for development and the removal of an eyesore. In Hull, an application for 48 dormer bungalows aimed at residents over 65 has been submitted, utilizing a site that was once a primary school and has lain unused since 2015. Meanwhile, Wolverhampton Council is progressing with a significant housing initiative to replace 93 outdated prefabricated bungalows with 99 new council homes, addressing severe structural issues that pose health risks to residents. The council emphasizes the importance of modern housing to meet current needs and improve living conditions. This initiative is part of a larger strategy to address over 4,100 outdated homes across the city. The new developments are seen as essential for both aesthetic and community well-being improvements.
