An update on Alvingham Road flats

A block of our flats on Alvingham Road in Scunthorpe have recently been vacated, following surveys that found building defects.

With the extensive and intrusive element of the repairs needed to bring it to the standard we aim to provide, it meant the best option was to work closely with the existing residents to find alternative, safe and secure homes.

Steve Ellard, our Director of Property said: “We’re pleased that all tenants have now moved into new homes, and we are currently looking at the longer-term future of the site with plans to demolish later this year.

“In the meantime, we remain dedicated to the safety of our community and will continue to take all necessary measures to ensure the site remains secure.

“That’s why, after a number of illegal access attempts, we’ve added additional security measures including shuttering and alarm systems.

“Once options for the future of the site have been created, we will carry out further consultation and provide an update.”
