Wyre Council has agreed to use Government funding to acquire commercial units earmarked for redevelopment as part of the mixed-use transformation of Fleetwood Docks.
The council approved the £4.03m investment – allocated from the Government’s £900m Getting Buildings Fund in August – at a cabinet meeting this month.
The Fleetwood Dock project – for which a planning application has yet to be submitted – would involve the development of new build commercial floorspace to accommodate a food and fish processing facility, as well as the potential demolition of outdated industrial units and remediation works to prepare the site for the future delivery of housing.
