Final proposals for Broxden site

49 homes will complete long-running project

plans of local businesses who have seen the site as a suitable location for investment.

“During this time it became increasingly apparent that parts of the commercial site were not meeting commercial business requirements and it has been through a constructive relationship with Perth and Kinross Council that we have been able to find uses for those parts of the site.

“The site for which the change of use application has been submitted has not attracted any market interest as employment land. We believe this to be the result of a combination of access constraints, topography, dislocation from the Broxden Services Park and the prospects of the emerging Perth Eco Innovation Park.

“The popularity of the Charlotte Gate development has presented a timely opportunity to complete the development as we mark the next big steps for Perth’s economic strategy by delivering the Perth Eco Innovation Park and wider Perth West project.

“As evidenced by the extensive predevelopment work undertaken over the past six years and the planning application that we are in the process of finalising, we are committed to delivering the project.

“Completing the Cherrybank development will enable much needed capital to be directed towards realising the Perth Eco Innovation Park and all the associated benefits for the city and the region.”
