Plan for housing development next to M1 approved
GooglePlans for up to 90 homes next to the M1 in Leicestershire have been given the go-ahead.
Harborough District Council has approved a planning application from Hallam Land Management Limited to build a housing development on land south of Lutterworth Road.
According to planning documents, 40% of homes in the proposed development in Lutterworth are classed as affordable.
Planning documents submitted to the council state the proposed development would "boost the supply of housing" in the area and contribute to "economic growth" through the creation of jobs during construction.
A report from the developer details the site would contain open space, play areas and space for tree planting.
The report also states the proposals would "contribute towards widening the choice of high quality homes and widen opportunities for home ownership".
