A search has begun for a development partner to regenerate The Brunel Centre and former Sainsbury’s site in Bletchley.
Following local engagement, Milton Keynes City Council has earmarked the sites, which are in the centre of Bletchley, for a modern mixed-use scheme, including new homes and shops.
The city council’s property arm, Milton Keynes Development Partnership (MKDP), acquired the sites last year to form part of the Bletchley and Fenny Stratford Town Deal project.
That scheme will bring improvements to Bletchley and Fenny Stratford, partly paid for by £23 million in Government funding.
A decision to begin the procurement process was made on July 30.
Deputy council leader and cabinet member for resources and customer experience, Cllr Lauren Townsend said: “This is another important milestone in delivering a brighter and more prosperous future for Bletchley and Fenny Stratford.
“We’re keen to find the right development partner who can take the community’s vision and reinvigorate these important sites. We have a real opportunity to deliver a scheme that will benefit people for generations to come.
“It’s thanks to the local community who have helped shape the proposals until now. We look forward to receiving proposals for the next phase of the project and continuing our work with local people.”
