£20m
Lincoln development to create 500 jobs
The first phase of the infrastructure of
Roman Gate a new £20 million district
centre for Lincoln which holds the prospect
of creating 500 new jobs is nearing completion
and work on the next phase will begin early
next year, according to Lindsey Securities,
the Lincoln based developer.
Roman Gate, a 9 acre site north of Lincoln
City Centre just a short distance from the
A46 Lincoln Bypass, will include shops, restaurants,
offices, leisure and residential amenities.
The new development will be linked to neighbouring
retail and commercial properties with footpaths
and cycleways. Traffic navigating the Nettleham
Road area will also benefit at a very early
stage from the new traffic light controls
at the sight entrance opposite the junction
of Lincoln Road/Nettleham Road/Wolsey Way.
This longstanding bottleneck will be cleared
with the road widening and traffic management
systems that are now being put in place, according
to the developer.
"We feel sure that everyone in the locality
will benefit from the new facilities that
can now be brought into the area," said
Lindsey Securities' director, Robin Taylor.
"We have already held talks with intending
occupiers, including retailers, professional
firms and a restaurant. We are now looking
for a leisure based business to help provide
balance for the first phase of the development
which will also include residential accommodation,"
said Chris Hodgson, partner, Chris Hodgson
of chartered surveyors, Hodgson Elkington
who are agents for the scheme.
