An £11 million council housing development constructed in Portslade, Brighton as part of the Brighton and Hove Council New Homes and Neighbourhoods scheme, is complete. Morgan Sindall Construction's Southern Homes Counties business has delivered a mix of one, two and three-bed sustainable homes close to Portslade Town Hall.
The energy-friendly homes use sustainable features such as solar panels and ground-source heat pumps, while the addition of communal gardens provides a green area for residents. Each home has been designed to reduce carbon emissions and lower energy bills. The Morgan Sindall team worked in partnership with offsite construction specialist Sigmat, to target carbon reductions with the design, manufacture and installation of a light steel frame system for the scheme.
Morgan Sindall is working with Brighton & Hove City Council to provide a range of affordable housing under the council's five-year Strategic Construction Partnership, launched in 2018. It is on track to deliver 800 new homes within the city.
Guy Hannell, Area Director for Morgan Sindall Construction in the Southern Home Counties, said: "It is an exciting moment for everyone involved in the Victoria Road project at Morgan Sindall and Brighton & Hove City Council, as we have delivered high-quality, sustainable homes for the long-term future for the people of Brighton & Hove. In line with the council's carbon-neutral target of 2030, and as part of our intelligent solutions approach to creating sustainable facilities, the project team has prioritised carbon-reduction techniques at every stage throughout the build and in operation. This will secure the long-term future of these much needed homes."
