Construction work commences on second phase of new housing scheme in Hull

Construction work is now underway on the next phase of Compendium Living’s regeneration scheme in Hull after councillors attended site to officially ‘cut the sod’.

The Leeway 2 off Saltshouse Road in Ings will provide 68 new homes to meet local housing demand.

Four two bedroom bungalows will be made available to local people via affordable housing provider, Together Housing.

The remaining 64 two, three and four bedroom homes will hit the market from early 2018.

There will be at least another five phases over the coming years.

All of the 65 new homes on the first phase of The Leeway, which offered homes for rent, shared ownership and open market sale, have now been occupied.

Dave Bullock, managing director at Compendium Living, said: “This is an exciting time for us to start work on the next phase of our regeneration project in Ings. We have been working in partnership with Hull City Council to offer much needed homes.

“The Ings regeneration development will eventually provide over 700 new homes, which will also contribute towards the growth of Hull. We are particularly proud to be building in Hull during its tenure as the City of Culture for 2017.”

Councillor John Black, Hull City Council housing portfolio holder for infrastructure and housing, added: “Compendium Living is progressing well with its development as part of our regeneration project for East Hull.

“It is fantastic that an award-winning homebuilder is providing high quality homes in Ings, which will help to transform and provide economic growth for Hull. We look forward to working on future phases with Compendium Living.”
