Work to unlock 10.5 hectares of commercial land at Blackpool Enterprise Zone will begin this month.

An £18.5m second access road to the Enterprise Zone will be built by George Cox & Sons will undertake the pre-construction works from April before the main build begins shortly after.

The Enterprise Zone is a 144 hectare site that includes Blackpool Airport, Blackpool Retail Park, Blackpool Business Park and surrounding land up to the border of Common Edge Road.

Support to build the new access road at the Enterprise Zone has been provided through a £7.5m grant from HM Government Town Fund.
