The technical consultants for a proposed development of 750 new homes in Lichfield have been confirmed.

It comes after a deal was been agreed to sell land off Watery Lane to builders Redrow Homes.

As part of the agreement, specialist consultants M-EC were brought in to look at aspects such as lighting, transport and drainage across the proposed development.

They also worked with local authorities, HS2, Network Rail and Severn Trent as part of the pre-planning role.

Director Alex Bennett said it had now been confirmed that the company would be retained as lead engineers by Redrow Homes for the next phase of the project.

“This is a great scheme to be involved in with great clients in IM Land and now Redrow Homes.

“I am looking forward to seeing it delivered and continuing to work with the wider consultancy team.”

Work is expected to begin on the site later this year, with showhomes expected to open in 2023.

As well as new housing, the scheme will also create provision for a new primary school, sports pitches and base for the Staffordshire Air Cadets.
