WORKS to a town centre apartment complex will see one-way restrictions in place on the adjacent road until February.
Fitzwilliam Street will be subject to restrictions from tomorrow to enable the works on Gateway Plaza to take place.
Barnsley Council has advised the one-way restrictions will last until February 20.
Gateway Plaza’s development of 188 flats was previously owned by Quest Property, part of the Brook Group which opened it 12 years ago, before investor L1 Property took on a large majority of the site.
It also housed Barnsley Council staff, but it was agreed last month the local authority would be moving out of the premises to explore rental possibilities.
The site at Townend hosts 96,000 square feet of office space, a Premier Inn hotel, Spectrum community health centre, and several bars and eateries.
We have been at the heart of our community, every week, since 1858. The town and its people have changed dramatically since then but the Chronicle has been a constant.
It’s our belief that news should be available to everyone regardless of their circumstance. But we need a little helping hand to do so.
Production Editor, Ashley Ball, said: "In an ever changing media world, it’s important that news is reported correctly and without any hidden agenda.
Your support allows us to keep holding decision-makers to account and report on everything that happens in the town, good or bad, fairly."
