More commercial units destined for old gas processing plant site
West Yorkshire’s HJ Consulting Engineers (HJCE) is working on the next phase of development of a business hub in North Yorkshire, which will turn a former gas processing plant into a regional enterprise hub.
The Wakefield-based firm is providing civil and structural engineering services to Lindum Group, which has started work on the latest stage of constructing 18,410 sq ft of commercial accommodation for SMEs at its Pickering Park site.
The move marks a continuation of redevelopment of the 18-acre site known as Pickering Park. The first stage was completed with the construction of nine industrial units – which have all been sold.
HJCE is supporting Lindum’s development plans with a package of services including civil and structural engineering, highway design together with drainage design, hydraulic modelling, SUDs design, flood risk assessment, as the second phase of work gets underway.
Andrew Fairburn, HJCE managing director, said the firm is seeking to recruit further members of staff.
He added: “The work at Pickering Park is another prestigious project for us, building on previous successes with commercial property developments right across Yorkshire and the wider national landscape.
“It showcases our engineering capabilities together with the skills and expertise available locally to help bring forward ambitious commercial property investments and detailed design work.”
Andy Gardner, senior development manager at Lindum Group, said: “We’re pleased to be playing a part in regenerating this former industrial site into a vibrant hub of activity that supports jobs, investment and enterprise.
“Our engineering partners HJCE, bring critical insight and project management experience to their work, we look forward to bringing this latest development to fruition.”
