Ground breakers start phase two

Ground was broken and main construction began on the University of Lincoln’s agri-food research and development facility at the new Food Enterprise Zone (FEZ) in Holbeach on Monday.

The milestone represents the next phase of construction following the ground works which began in summer last year, with completion of the building due early next year.

Prof Val Braybrooks, Dean of Holbeach, said: “We are delighted to celebrate this milestone and look ahead to the many benefits the new Centre of Excellence will bring to businesses across Lincolnshire and beyond.”
