He added: "The 100 per cent affordable scheme will provide a significant boost to the provision of affordable housing in Bridlington, while the construction of the development could support around 211 jobs, generating a GVA or more than £10m.”

Established in 1987, Keyland regenerates surplus land and property from Yorkshire Water’s portfolio. In addition to its work transforming former Yorkshire Water land, the team also works alongside independent landowners, corporates, or regulated bodies to overcome obstacles to development on strategic sites in order to secure planning permission for regeneration projects.

A spokesman said the Bridlington scheme adopts Keyland’s model of sustainable development. This model is designed to maximise the potential of the land and deliver significant additional benefits to residents, the spokesman said.
