Caddick Construction has been selected to deliver an eight-storey 63 apartment development on Kiwi Street in Salford, Manchester.

The firm was appointed by The Guinness Partnership.

The social housing scheme will see 47 one-bedroomed and 16 two-bedroomed energy-efficient homes, with car and cycle parking on the 0.8 acre Cherry Tree Court site, where the former tower block was recently demolished.

As well as remediation, external works, service infrastructure, roads and drainage, Caddick Construction will create a communal garden as part of the landscaping proposals.

Peter Carroll, project manager at Caddick Construction, said: "We are looking forward to using the team's extensive experience to deliver this energy efficient apartment scheme at Kiwi Street.

"This exciting project will replace a former 1960s tower block with a far more sustainable, attractive and high-quality development."

As part of its commitment to the local economy, Caddick Construction will create jobs, work placements and training and development opportunities though apprenticeships and traineeships.

The development is set to complete in early 2024.
