As work on the development of Barnsley College’s new build continues the adjacent footpath on Church Street will be closed. The footpath, due to be closed for 8 weeks, will help create a lay-by for construction traffic and enable the access of the delivery of the tower crane.

Andrew Fairest, Director of New Build said: “This is a really exciting time for us and the building is making great progress, but we must make sure that health and safety comes first.  For your own safety, I would ask that everyone uses the alternative pedestrian route around the footpath.  Access to Old Mill Lane site is available for College students, staff and visitors through the B block basement corridor. The plans are available here.
