The tower blocks will also be connected to the Nottingham City District Heating network, which provides energy efficient heating to domestic and commercial customers across the city. The work is due to be completed in winter 2015 and the blocks will remain fully occupied throughout the duration of the project.

330 houses and 178 flats will receive external wall insulation under a contract with Gedling Homes. As part of the works, Wates Living Space will also enhance the external appearance of the block of flats at Walton Court.
