A new housing and care home scheme at Slyne has again been given planning permission.
The plans for 58 new homes, care facility and a local centre were approved by Lancaster City Council on Monday.
The Taylor Wimpey scheme will be built in fields off Lancaster Road and next to Turnpike Fold.
They will build a mixture of two, three and four-bedroom houses, as well as a care home and centre which could include a coffee shop, pharmacy and community space.
The scheme was given planning permission in 2023 subject to conditions and the completion of a legal agreement, and work was expected to start in 2024.
But amended plans went in due to changes in council and government planning policy since permission was granted.
The site, which is close to the Bay Gateway and existing houses on Turnpike Fold, has been identified by Lancaster City Council as available for residential development of up to 700 homes.
The Lancaster City Council planning regulatory committee voted unanimously to approve full planning permission for 58 homes with associated landscaping, infrastructure, public open space and access arrangements, and an outline application for an extra care and a local centre development with associated landscaping, open space and infrastructure.
