New 1,900-Home Development Planned In Livingston

Construction News Image
A new 1,900-home development is to be built on the south west border of Livingston.

Springfield Properties secured 400 acres of zoned land for the project.

A planning application for phase one is expected to be submitted by early 2019. Phase one will involve the construction of 600 private and affordable homes.

The area is also zoned for commercial units and a primary school.

Sandy Adam, Executive Chairman of Springfield, said: "I am delighted that we have secured this significant land deal, which extends our years of activity – strengthening our long-term future. It is an excellent site in a location with high demand for new homes thanks to its easy access to both Edinburgh and Glasgow. We have a proven track record in delivering long-term projects like this one and by applying the expertise that we have gained through the development of our villages, we can accelerate the successful development of this new site. We would expect to be able to begin selling homes around three years from now. We look forward to working with West Lothian Council to bring to life the vision they have for this area to provide much-needed new homes and create a new desirable locality within the established town of Livingston."
