Loughborough University has launched a public consultation on a proposed new student accommodation development on its Loughborough campus.
The site for the accommodation lies in the Central Park area of the campus, close to the Edward Herbert Building. It includes the existing Car Park 5 as well as land adjacent to it, including the parts of the campus previously occupied by the Graham Oldham and Chemistry buildings, both of which have already been demolished.
The new accommodation would replace existing stock on campus that has reached its end of life.
The development would provide 552 bedspaces across five blocks. The blocks would be set within landscaped surroundings, including a shared plaza and a landscaped square.
Feedback received as part of this consultation process will help to inform further development of the proposals, in advance of the planning application submission to the local authority.
