Work on a major £4.3 million expansion to one of Shropshire’s business parks is due to begin next month, boosting the local economy and securing and creating jobs.
Shropshire Council has appointed SJ Roberts Construction Ltd to carry out the work at Bishop’s Castle Business Park, which will be expanded by 50,000 square feet.
The council-owned park secured £1.27 million European Regional Development funding last year, while Shropshire Council has agreed to spend £3.1 million on the project to boost economic growth in the region.
SJ Roberts are due to begin work on the site in July with a targeted opening of March 2022.
