Building work on schedule for June completion

Building work on schedule for June completion

16 March 2015

Work is progressing well at east Hull's brand new £5 million retail scheme which is due to open this summer.

The impressive steel frame structure which will house five new retail units has now been erected at the development which is transforming a 1.8 acre site on the corner of Mount Pleasant and Holderness Road in east Hull.

Now that the steel work is complete, the roof and wall cladding is due to get underway later this week. It’s hoped this part of the work will be  completed by early April - works to the area that will house the substation will also get started early next week.

The development is being brought forward by the Barnsley based retail property specialists Dransfield Properties Ltd. The main contractors Geo Houlton and Sons are on schedule to complete the main building work in June ready for the internal fit out works to start.

Once completed the scheme will be anchored by a 25,000 sq. ft. B&M store with a garden centre and four further new retail units are also being built, including a Subway store.

Two empty shops fronting Holderness Road are being refurbished and brought back into use as part of the overall project. The scheme will create around 50 new jobs in the area.

As well as bringing an attractive new retail development to this part of Holderness Road the scheme includes a new district centre car park with around 90 parking spaces.

Further announcements are due to be made over the next few weeks about other companies who are set to join the line up.
