\"\"Wirral Council has given the green light for the \u00a34M waterside Egerton Village scheme, which will contain retail<\/a>, events and arts space, at a site adjacent to Wirrall Metropolitan College.<\/p>\n

The development, which will form a central element of Peel L&P\u2019s Wirral Waters and with views across the river Mersey to Liverpool, will be a creative and community hub for visitors, students, businesses and residents.<\/p>\n

The waterside village has been designed by OMI Architects, following an architectural competition. Its design is a response to the Wirral being a series of villages, the site\u2019s quayside location on the docks and its views across the River Mersey to Liverpool.<\/p>\n

Richard Mawdsley, Director of Development at Peel L&P, said: \u201cEgerton Village is a really important development at Wirral Waters as it will help provide some of the facilities and amenities that are missing, but that lie at the heart of a regeneration project. It has been designed to serve new and existing residents, students and local businesses as well as visitors. Securing planning is a positive step forward.\u201d<\/p>\n

Nick Berry, Director of OMI Architects said: \u201cThe approval of the Egerton Village proposal is a positive milestone in the delivery of what will become the natural \u2018hub\u2019 for leisure<\/a> activities within Peel L&Ps wider Wirral Waters vision.<\/p>\n

Wirral Council Cabinet Member for Jobs and Growth, Cllr Tony Jones, said: \u201cThere is a real momentum building at Wirral Waters, which is seeing more and more significant steps forward. The confidence this is building up cannot be over-estimated and shows how important Wirral is becoming as a place to invest and the opportunities it offers. This latest announcement is continuing proof that this is an exciting time for the Wirral.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
