The Dewsbury Riverside scheme is allocated in the Kirklees Local Plan for up to 4,000 homes. The site will include the provision of a local centre, community infrastructure and schools. The development is in a prime strategic location within the Leeds City Region, equidistant from the M62 and M1 motorways, and brand new Ravensthorpe Railway Station shortly to be constructed to the west of the site as part of the Transpennine Route Upgrade, providing excellent access to Leeds, Manchester, Huddersfield and beyond.

A hybrid planning application has now been submitted seeking full approval for engineering works, drainage and utilities connection for the provision of site access, with outline being sought for erection of residential and mixed-use (community facilities) developments.
