Construction of Britain’s largest development of ‘zero carbon’ homes is expected to start soon following approval of the scheme by Peterborough City Council’s planning and environmental protection committee today. The homes in Peterborough are being delivered as part of the Government’s Carbon Challenge programme, managed by the Homes and Communities Agency (HCA). The sustainable development will provide a mixture of 63 two-bedroom, 90 three-bedroom and 68 four-bedroom houses plus 74 two-bedroom apartments in a seven-storey block. The apartment block, complete with a grass roof and green walling will include a 278-sq metre (3,000 sq ft) food store and parking space for cars and cycles. Read more on 24dash.
