Land Securities has won approval for its 1.8m sq ft masterplan for Northfleet Rise, close to the site of the new Ebbsfleet International Station in Kent.

The proposed mixed-use development features 807,000 sq ft of space for offices, retail and leisure use as well as 9 acres of public space and 464 new homes.

It will occupy a space to the north of the new Eurostar station, which opened in 2007 and is due to be connected to the UK rail network by the end of 2009.

The Ebbsfleet Valley is expected to provide up to 10,000 new homes and 9million sq ft of office, retail and leisure space in new developments over the next 25 years.
