6 July 2010

Plans have now been submitted for a new retail development at Mount Pleasant in East Hull.

The scheme is poised to breath new life  to a run down site in the city and create up to 400 new jobs in the area.

The plans were welcomed by residents who attended an open public consultation session in May this year. Now the proposals have been submitted to Hull City Council's planning department.

The new scheme is being delivered by the Mount Pleasant Urban Regeneration Company, led by Dransfield Properties Ltd. It will bring:

• A new foodstore covering 92,500 sq ft
• 600 car parking spaces
• New petrol filling station
• 400 new jobs
• A range of smaller retail units
• A piece of public art  

A number of businesses have already been relocated including 353535 Taxis and the Humber Social Club which opened in its new premises at the former Royal Hotel on New Bridge Road in January this year.

Managing Director of Mount Pleasant Urban Regeneration and Dransfield Properties, Mark Dransfield said: “We were very pleased with the feedback we received from members of the public at our consultation session in May and we are confident the development witll bring new life to this part of the city.
