The construction of the multi-million-pound enterprise and innovation hub – set to bring hundreds of new jobs to Scunthorpe town centre – is progressing at pace.
Last week Towns Fund Board members were on site to witness an important milestone in the building’s construction – the laying of the last brick to the 46-unit accommodation block.
When completed, the build will provide more than 27,000 sq ft of premium office and collaborative space for up to 200 workers, and a licensed café bar, as well as the accommodation.
Cllr Rob Waltham, leader of North Lincolnshire Council and Towns Fund Board member, said: “It was brilliant to get a tour of the site and see first-hand the progress being made on this landmark build.
“Scunthorpe MP Holly Mumby-Croft works hard to secure Government support for the town – including the cash needed to deliver this groundbreaking hub – which will bring new jobs and new people to the heart of Scunthorpe.
“The Enterprise Hub is one of a number of projects which will create an exciting new future for the town, and I can’t wait to see all the works completed.”
