26 Stalled development projects across the region have been shortlisted for a share of £925m

Published: Tue, 28 Jul 2009 13:15:12

Housing Minister John Healey today, 27 July 2009, announced that 26 stalled development projects across Yorkshire & the Humber have been shortlisted for a share of £925m, which could help get building work on 22,400 homes back on track and create 20,000 jobs.

The projects, worth £83m in the region, involve more than 2,000 homes. They include housing schemes in Grimsby, Rotherham, Hull, Leeds, Sheffield, Doncaster, Wakefield, Barnsley, East Riding and Skipton. 

Every region has shortlisted projects and will benefit from this major cash injection, part of the Prime Minister’s Housing Pledge announced last month, that will help build the homes the country needs, help the country through the recession and help people into jobs.  The projects have been identified by the Homes and Communities Agency through the Kickstart programme.
