Located in a prime location alongside the River Mersey and centred on the revitalised award-winning park, Birkenhead is about to become an exciting place to live.

Birkenhead is in the process of major transformation into a vibrant area. 210 properties have been cleared in the Ten Streets area for industrial and commercial use to create new jobs. Properties have been cleared at Station Road and Tyrer Street for mixed housing, retail and commercial development which complements the £4.5bn Wirral Waters plans for Birkenhead and Wallasey docks over the next 30 years. Nearly 400 homes have been refurbished in the Triangles area and house prices have risen significantly. Attracting private and public investment, Birkenhead will see the creation of better living environments and homes fit for the 21st Century over the coming years.

Future plans include the clearance of 100 properties in Milner and Carrington Streets and an external improvement scheme to 280 homes in Craven and Paterson Streets. Further consultation is underway in Bray and Brassey Streets, to be concluded at the end of 2008.

Birkenhead has a great housing offer, good schools, excellent transport links and is attracting private sector investment with plans for new hotels, casino, shops and improved college facilities. Birkenhead is a fantastic place to set up home. Live Wirral. Love Wirral.

Projects currently underway are as follows:

• Knowles Street
• Craven & Paterson Streets
