Somerset Council - North Taunton Woollaway Project

Somerset Council has embarked on a major redevelopment scheme to transform the North Taunton neighbourhood and build quality, energy efficient new homes where people will want to live. The proposed scheme will provide up to 230 new build homes and retrofit 27 existing council homes through a phased approach. There will be a net increase of 64 new homes as a result of the overall scheme. Phase A comprising some 47 new dwellings is nearing completion. The Council is now seeking to secure the delivery of Phases B and Ci comprising 51 new dwellings along with 2 new dwellings in what was to be the new community centre (completed to shell and core standards under the Phase A Contract). Subject to satisfactory performance the Council is also seeking to secure the option for the delivery (by mutual agreement) of Phases Cii (31 new dwellings), Ciii (29 new dwellings) and D (69 new dwellings). These Phases will commence immediately on the completion of Phases B and Ci.
