PLANS to complete the £16m regeneration of Halewood’s Raven Court site have moved a major step forward.
Neptune Developments has signed a legal agreement with Knowsley Council to build a new supermarket on the site, along with a range of individual shopping units and a hairdressing salon.
The 48,000 sq ft scheme will accommodate a number of well-known retailers including Aldi, Tesco, Home Bargains, frozen food store Cooltrader and bookmakers, William Hill.
A newsagent and a fish and chip takeaway are also relocating to the new development from the old centre.
The plans, which were approved by the council in November, include a bus interchange facility, car parking and possibly a new pub restaurant.

It also saw the opening of the Halewood Centre, back in January, 2009.
The Halewood Centre brings together a range of Knowsley Council, NHS Knowsley and community services in one building.
