These include 195 homes at sites in Wester Inch, Bathgate; Redhouse West, Blackburn and in Pumpherston. These three schemes, with a combined value of 拢17.5m, will provide a mix of cottage flats, houses and bungalows and are set to be completed in December 2016.
Lovell will also build 230 new homes in an 拢18.1m development at Kirkhill, Broxburn, which is due for completion by April 2017. This will also be a mix of cottage flats, houses and bungalows.
In addition, Lovell has just started work on an 18-home redevelopment of the former Broxburn Primary School, a scheme is set to be finished in summer 2015.
