£6m homes plan for SA1 Swansea Waterfront

Further developments are also under way at SA1 Swansea Waterfront

Fifty new homes are planned for Swansea after the Welsh government announced a deal with a construction company.

Contracts have been exchanged for two residential sites on SA1 Swansea Waterfront, leaving just four remaining plots at the development.

Persimmon Homes West Wales said the £6m project would support a "substantial number" of construction jobs.

Work could start later this year subject to planning approval.

The company recently completed the new Haven development overlooking the Prince of Wales dock and plans are under way for a £100m waterside campus for University of Wales Trinity Saint David.
