    Dragon Road car park in Harrogate.

    Dragon Road car park in Harrogate looks set to undergo a £140,000 resurfacing.

    Harrogate Borough Council has advertised for a contractor for the scheme on the government’s procurement portal.

    The authority is looking to resurface the car park because it has become worn.

    According to the advertisement, the contract is due to start on January 30.

    The car park had been earmarked as a potential site to create affordable flats or extra care housing.

    However, senior borough councillors decided to pause the plans in November in order for the site to continue to support parking at Harrogate Convention Centre.

    Cllr Tim Myatt, cabinet member for planning at the council, proposed the authority should ensure that “adequate parking for Harrogate Convention Centre associated vehicles take primacy over site redevelopment”.

    He added that the council should “pause consideration of this site until it is clear that the Harrogate Convention Centre redevelopment will be able to accommodate exhibition traffic on site”.
