This £50m mixed-use Genr8 project in Sowerby Bridge incorporated a significant infrastructure and flood-prevention piece, funded with a European (ESIF) grant.

The project underwent complex site remediation due to contaminated ground as a previously neglected brownfield site. The site also now provides 100,000 sq ft of high quality industrial accommodation arranged over five units, plus a new neighbourhood of 150 family homes.

As part of the infrastructure project, a new 1.5km highway was designed alongside a green corridor to improve and protect biodiversity in the area.

In partnership with Calderdale Council and the Yorkshire Wildlife trust, the area boasts new wildlife including otters, kingfishers, and multiple species of butterfly which the local community can enjoy through new nature trails.
