Looks like repairs to the prestonmarkets canopy are due to resume
Replacement of cast iron featuresHowever in September 2015, Cabinet also approved the construction of the New Market Hall, beneath the canopy of the 1875 Covered Market, and the development of the Box Market, beneath the 1924 Fish Market canopy.In order for the new construction to continue to programme, a decision was taken to delay the repair works to both canopies, to avoid any conflict between different contractors working on each scheme.
The outstanding works to the markets are the gutter repairs and the repair to a number of corroded column bases.The intention was to complete the canopy repair works on completion of the ‘new-build’ contract.This did not happen as the contractors undertaking the original canopy repair works went into liquidation while things were on pause.
Financial implications have arose due to the timescale of this scheme, £201,000 was previously allocated for the planned works but due to delays the costs may now be in excess. In the meeting next week, Cabinet is requested to delegate authority to the Director of Environment and Property to award the contract within the estimated budget outlined in this report.
