Liverpool City Council has set out plans to deliver more than 10,000 new homes in one of Britain’s most deprived areas.

The council has sent a submission for New Town status to the Department of Housing, Communities and Local Government to deliver the new housing on the city’s northern fringe.

If approved, the new town-sized settlement, Liverpool North, would transform a number of brownfield sites and span 5km between Bootle and Liverpool, including Everton, Anfield and Kirkdale.

Liverpool City Council has worked in collaboration with Sefton Council, Liverpool City Region Combined Authority, Homes England, and key landowners in the area to set out a 10-year vision for the area.

Cllr Liam Robinson, leader of Liverpool City Council, said: ‘These ambitious plans mark the beginning of an era of change and transformation for the whole Liverpool City Region. If given the go-ahead by the UK Government, Liverpool North will be a dramatic new landmark between the city centre and Bootle and provide a catalytic boost to the area.’
