Local improvements
Supporting Gayton as it grows
New homes need to be supported by the right infrastructure and services. Our proposals are therefore considering roads, schools, healthcare, green space and walking and cycling routes from the outset.
Detailed assessments will help identify what improvements may be needed and how they could be delivered. Feedback from local people will also help us understand the issues and priorities that matter most.
Education and healthcare
Supporting local schools and healthcare
We will work with relevant education and healthcare bodies to understand existing capacity and any additional support required as a result of the proposals. This could include financial contributions towards local schools and healthcare provision, with any requirements formally agreed through the planning process.
Transport
Improving roads and local connections
Transport specialists will assess traffic, road safety, access, public transport and walking and cycling routes. The findings will be reviewed by Wirral Council as part of the planning process and will help identify any changes needed to manage traffic safely and improve local connections.
New walking and cycling routes could make shorter journeys within and around the local area easier and safer.
Homes
A wider choice of homes
Our plans provide an opportunity to deliver a broader mix of homes, including smaller, accessible and manageable properties for people who want to right-size while remaining close to friends, family and familiar places. A more varied housing offer could also help younger households and families find suitable homes locally.
Green spaces
Creating green and healthy spaces
The proposals will include new public open space, walking routes, seating and areas for play and relaxation.
These new spaces could support healthier lifestyles, improve access to nature and create places for people to meet.
Existing landscape features will be protected and enhanced where possible. New planting and habitats will support local wildlife, improving onsite biodiversity.
