REVAMPED allotments are set to open to the public as part of the Barrow waterfront development.
Cumbria County Council is set to unveil the new allotments on Barrow Waterfront at an official opening ceremony tomorrow at 1pm. The opening will include a ribbon-cutting, a speech from Programme Manager David Haughian and a tour around the new site.
The new allotments have been constructed as part of the Barrow Waterfront Business Park project, to replace the old run down allotments located in the area of the proposed new business park off Ramsden Dock Road.
The construction works have been completed by Thomas Armstrong Ltd who maintained an excellent relationship with the allotment holders, whilst CAPITA are the lead designers. The project has been funded by the Cumbria Local Enterprise Partnership and managed by Cumbria County Council.
