Oldham Council’s Planning Committee approved planning applications for six key town centre sites in the UK.
Oldham Council and Muse are working in partnership over the next 15 years to develop council-owned brownfield sites across the Town Centre. Following endorsement of the Development Framework in November 2024, proposals for six priority sites were worked up and submitted for approval earlier this year. This included Prince’s Gate, the Civic Tower, the Civic Centre, the former Magistrates’ Court, the former Manchester Chambers and the former Leisure Centre.
These proposals will collectively deliver up to 1,619 new homes through a mix of high-quality and sustainable properties, from one-bedroom to three-bedroom apartments, designed to meet the needs of families, older people, and young professionals in Oldham. The plans also include affordable homes across a range of tenures. The regeneration of these sites will help to create a more vibrant, welcoming and well-used town centre, whilst creating new opportunities for local business and to attract future investment.
