North Lanarkshire Council has accepted extraction and remediation works throughout 200 acres of the 1,200-acre plot – unlocking the subsequent part of brownfield regeneration scheme.
The programme entails ripping out deep steelworks foundations and shifting greater than 2.7m cubic metres of fabric to arrange land for a brand new mixed-use neighborhood.
The cleared space alone may finally help as much as 2,000 properties alongside industrial, leisure and green-space improvement.
The accepted zone consists of Meadowhead subsequent to new city park The Craig, land across the Ravenscraig Regional Sports activities Facility, and plots north of New School Lanarkshire’s Motherwell Campus.
Ravenscraig director Russell Wilkie mentioned the approval “turns once-unusable industrial land right into a viable location for residential improvement that can breathe new life into the realm.”
Council chief Jim Logue mentioned the authority’s new street and active-travel hyperlinks from Motherwell to Ravenscraig have been “important to open up the location to allow additional funding.”
The JV behind the scheme – Barratt Developments, Tata Metal and Scottish Enterprise – has already invested £250m in long-term plans to rework the previous steelworks, which closed in 1992.
