GREEN LIGHT: Affordable housing at Horwich Loco Works development THE development of the former Horwich Loco Works is of ‘vital strategic importance to Bolton’ to avoid the need to build on green belt land, councillors have heard. The comments were made as Bolton Council’s planning committee unanimously approved plans for 116 housing association homes at the heart of the former works. However, the committee heard objections on heritage grounds about the affordable housing scheme at Rivington Chase, the 187-acre brownfield site of the former Horwich Loco Works. The developers said the homes will provide affordable housing for up to 385 people with a combination of family houses and apartments in two four-storey blocks that total 116 residential units.
