Long-term roadworks as Harrogate office block refurbished
Work on Station Bridge in Harrogate looks set to continue indefinitely as a major office block is refurbished.
Construction work is being carried out by HACS to refurbish and redevelop Copthall Bridge House.
Businesses operating in the premises were told to vacate the building in November 2018.
A proposal to re-clad the ground floor and repaint the upper floors was approved by Harrogate Borough Council in November last year.
The application, which was submitted by a company called Rural Offices LLP, said the plans would help to “assist in attracting occupiers which will further enhance the area”.
It added:
As a result, one lane on Station Bridge has been closed and the footpath next to Copthall Bridge House has been closed.
According to North Yorkshire Council’s roadworks map, a notice of the works runs until April 2, 2024.
