Watkin Jones Group has received the green light for a £20m 394-bed student accomodation scheme in Chester.
The developer secured planning permission from Cheshire West and Cheshire council to develop a Kelsey Design Associates-designed scheme on the former Chester city transport bus depot in Crewe Street.
The development will comprise five blocks between three and six storeys high.
Construction will begin in September, and completion is expected in June 2015.
