The council will now engage with the consortium to identify development opportunities on East Street, Commercial Street and Kendrew Street, and devise a long-term development approach. The East Street site is next to the new HM Treasury offices within Darlington's Economic Campus. Willmott Dixon is already busy in the town, building a 600-space multi-storey car park by the railway station.
