Denne and Coplan Estates are working with Bedford Borough Council on a £50m project to regenerate the town’s riverside. The site is currently occupied by a car park and Bedford Borough Council offices, now due to be vacated this spring.
Denne and Coplan are working alongside architects PRP to develop proposals for Bedford Borough Council’s £50m project. The project plan includes a 150 bedroom hotel, 30,000 square feet of retail and restaurant space and 150 high-quality residential units.
Detailed discussions are already ongoing with a potential cinema operator with planning permission expected to be applied for in the summer of 2012.
Dave Hodgson, the Mayor of Bedford, said: “This high profile site offers a fantastic opportunity to deliver real regeneration for our town centre. We are working hard alongside Coplan/Denne to bring forward the scheme and make the most of this unique town centre riverside location for Bedford.”
Coplan and Denne are also the preferred development partners for the £50m mixed use redevelopment of a council owned car park within the heart of Herne Bay for Canterbury City Council.
