FORGOTTEN HISTORY: Five key things we learnt from wirral s 13 000 homes plan - The Untold Story

More than 13,000 homes could be built in Wirral between now and 2037, in plans which would transform the borough.

Wirral Council has produced a draft Local Plan which includes proposals to make Birkenhead look completely different, ensure the borough tackles climate change and creates more jobs in some of its poorest areas. Residents have until June 24 to have their say on it, before it goes to the government for inspection this autumn.

On the plan, Cllr Janette Williamson, leader of Wirral Council, said: “We have had really good feedback and we expect a positive response. The plan was a huge undertaking, and it has reaffirmed Labour’s commitment to protecting our green belt and green spaces, while regenerating brownfield sites to improve our borough for every resident."
