Clements Road, Ramsgate
Council owned land to the rear of Clement Place, Ramsgate has been identified for redevelopment to provide additional affordable housing to be aimed at older households (plus 55s).
The proposal is that we will reconfigure the existing hardstanding, parking area, stores and drying areas to provide a brand new block of nine accessible apartments.
There will also be improved landscaping and the creation of a communal garden area for the new build and existing Thanet District Council blocks at the site.
The redevelopment aims to regenerate the current site, adding to and enhancing the sustainable and cohesive community.

During this phase the Council will procure the services of a Main Contractor to finalise design and deliver the new affordable housing units plus wider landscaping.
