The work is being carried out on the infrastructure which will open up a major development site at Capitol Park in Goole, acting as a catalyst for economic growth and creating 116,000 square metres of factories and warehouses to the west of the port.

The HCA, which is investing up to £13 million at the site over the next two years, with support from the European Regional Development Fund, has appointed Lagan Construction Group to build a new 1 kilometre road and associated drainage works.
Rob Pearson, Head of Area at the HCA, said: "The start of work on the new road is fantastic news for the local economy – it will help create employment for the town and the wider community for many years to come. This 40 hectare site will provide a range of opportunities for companies to locate in Goole with excellent connections to the Port and the motorway network. We will continue to invest in Capitol Park for the next 5 years working with our partners to help create sustainable jobs for local people."
