We are seeking a Construction Delivery Partner to support the design development of planning application proposals and subsequently to carry out the construction of the regeneration of the site located at Andrews Place, Chelmsford.

The mix of dwellings is to be developed to meet the housing needs identified within the Local Authority area and is anticipated to provide a mix of dwellings including apartments and town houses, including 4 bedroomed properties; all compliant to NDSS standards. Proposals are to maximise densities on the site, to achieve of the order of 200 to 250 dwellings, as well as addressing CHPs and Chelmsford City Council's (the Council) Place Shaping and Public Realm requirements, providing new focal points of public interest (including the Council's 'public art' policy requirements). It is anticipated that the re-development of the site will provide an opportunity to enhance biodiversity in the area.
