Nottingham’s city leaders have given outline planning permission for a £390m 28-acre regeneration scheme led by English Partnerships and ISIS Waterside Regeneration.
Outline planning has been granted for the Trent Basin scheme, located between Nottingham Canal to the west, and the racecourse to the east. The development is set to transform one of the city’s most rundown areas into a modern riverside community, with 2,200 flats and houses, offices, shops, bars, restaurants and waterside facilities. Work on phase one of Trent Basin is expected to begin next year, and should take two years to complete.

Mich Stevenson OBE, chair of Nottingham Waterside Ltd, said: “ Trent Basin is Nottingham’s most significant regeneration opportunity. The scheme will herald the next phase of the city’s massive regeneration plans and will inject real community life into this run-down area of Nottingham.”
