The Stafford Station Gateway regeneration scheme will bring new homes, businesses, a multi-storey car park and leisure and retail facilities to underutilised brownfield land around the railway station.
On 20 November 2023 the Council secured just under £20 million of Levelling Up Funding that will unlock the development potential of the 28 hectare site.
A new Institute of Technology for the Newcastle and Stafford Colleges Group, supported by £13 million of government funding and backed by Keele University, Siemens, and Dell among others, is already being built on part of the Gateway site.
More information on the Gateway can be found in the site’s Strategic Regeneration Framework which was adopted by Council on 24 January 2023.
