A schedule of progress for Citywest Park submitted shows completed house and an apartment building in the process of being put together – structure is noted to be complete and the next step is the installation of windows.

A good chunk of housing is said to be “fully complete”, while work is still ongoing on some plots.

The supply chain is stated to have disrupted progress but brickwork and blockwork has commenced on some of the last housing plots.

The proposed development includes associated site works, with car parking, bin storage, open spaces and landscaping.

Access to the development will be via two vehicular entrances from Garter Avenue.
