Sustainable travel link for key Grimsby business parks back on the agenda

Europarc and Great Grimsby Business Park could benefit from new bridge linking two sites

Bridge over flood alleviating waters: Plans to link Europarc and Great Grimsby Business Park are back on the agenda as the country cracks on with plans to 'build back better'. The site of the crossing is highlighted, with the A180 running down the left and the former Courtaulds service road which has now been adopted as part of a wider scheme, on the right.

A bridge to ease sustainable travel to two business parks is back on track.

Highways officials in Grimsby have lodged a new planning application to link Great Grimsby Business Park and Europarc, traversing Town’s Croft Drain.

It would see the current pedestrian facility replaced, with the proposal to allow cycles and buses use.

Automatic Number Plate Recognition cameras would be used to deter private motorists, with both served from junctions of the A180.

Plans were originally submitted in October 2019, and as part of the proposal existing bus routes would be redirected, with the aim of increasing use with streamlined services.

Huge seafood processing facilities dominate both parks, with Morrisons and Hilton Seafood (formerly Seachill) soon to be joined by Iceland Seafoods 海角视频 in the former Five Star Fish facility. Together they employ well over 3,000 people, with two soup production sites also located there.

The application, which will be considered by North East Lincolnshire Council, reveals how the bridge will connect Europarc at Genesis Way with the Great Grimsby Business Park on Laforey Road.

Both were previously linked privately when Bakkavor owned neighbouring sites on both parks.
