Former Whittingham Hospital, Lancashire

Homes England

The team, headed by Campbell Reith as engineering consultants and including Barton Wilmore as planning consultants, are responsible for the development of proposals for circa 750 dwellings, sports and social club improvements and land for a new primary school on the site of the old Whittingham Hospital to the north east of Preston city centre.

Prime helped secure outline planning consent through our Transport Assessment, access design and bus route improvement strategy, with the latter significantly enhancing the accessibility of the site by this sustainable mode of travel.

Prime have continued to be involved in the project at the reserved matters stage, completing the site wide Travel Plan on behalf of Homes England, and providing supporting highways notes and Full Travel Plans for the Barratt Homes and Elan Homes phases of the development.
