Construction work has started for a transformational project that will redevelop three blocks of flats into modern, high-quality homes.
Work is underway at Teviot Avenue in Aveley to demolish three existing blocks of flats containing 36 council homes that were built from non-traditional materials in the 1950s, so that 48 new, affordable council homes can be built.
The redevelopment of numbers 158-228 (evens only) at Teviot Avenue was approved at a Cabinet meeting on Wednesday 13 March 2024, and work is set to be completed by Autumn 2027.
