The Welsh Government (“WG”/“the Client”) has acquired land at Slade Lane, Haverfordwest (“the site”) to unlock its development potential and ability to deliver well-designed, sustainable and affordable homes in readiness for disposal to a third party capable of implementing delivery. To achieve this, we are inviting proposals from the open market to masterplan the site in a way which aligns with the WG’s policy aspirations, including (but not limited to) 50% affordable across the site, WDQR 2021 standards across all homes and moving along the pathway to net zero living. Additionally, we expect proposals to deliver social value and public benefits.
