Plans to build houses and flats on a shops complex on Hudddersfield’s ring road have been delayed.
The proposal for 60 student digs and 13 houses on the Queensgate site featuring Majestic Wine Warehouse, a pet store and a bathroom showroom was revealed in July 2014.
But 18 months on and developers have modified their plans to include more student flats.
The proposal, next to Huddersfield County Court in Queensgate House, now features 64 student flats.
The proposal by Wortley Development Ltd and Jaguar Estates would see the current shops – Luxury Bathroom Studio, Pet Warehouse and Majestic wines demolished.
Plans submitted to Kirklees Council show the four-storey townhouses will front on to Chapel Street while the student digs would close to Queensgate.
Two shops would be included underneath the flats.
A cycle store and landscaped grass area would be on the site of the wine warehouse.

The retail site was only created in the late 1990s after conversion from a petrol station.
Developers have said huge fuel tanks beneath the ground, installed in the 1960s, 70s and early 80s, will be removed.
