Union Carbide site off claywheels lane

Is anyone aware that there are proposals to regenerate the union carbide site and claywheels lane?

Plans are afoot for 550 aspirational houses on the site, new light industry, a new bypass from middlewood road over the don down to penistone road and a footpath running down the side of the winn gardens estate to a footbridge over the don.

It all looks very swish.

Oooh, can we see some plans online? Sounds like a brownfield regeneration site at last! Hurrah!!

No, what else do you know about this? How long will it take to implement?

No plans online, but... there is a public consultation tonight, and the local area E guys are holding a meeting about it on thursday. The will be showing everyone the plans there.

Hurray for brown field development (maybe thats why SWFC are having such a hard time?)

If people are prepared to pay good money to live next to a toxic waste dump at Shirecliffe, they might be prepared to pay even more to live on a former Union Carbide site.

God knows what's buried underground

The developers have been on site for a year already doing a cleanup operation. Incidentally its the same guys who are doing the ski village thingy with the big snow dome.

There is some background reading here:

Plans have changed significantly since this meeting in October. The original proposals to relocate industry to the site have been rejected by Upper Don Renaissance in favour of the housing scheme and light industry instead.
