Dorset Innovation Park gets £14m investment

An investment of £14.6m is to go towards a science park in Dorset. Dorset Council approved the funding for Dorset Innovation Park on the former Winfrith nuclear site. It will pay for 10 new light industrial units, costing £3.1m, and a four-year capital investment of £11.5m on other long-term projects. This could mean buying a six-hectare (14 acre) plot of land, close to the county police headquarters, to expand the site. Other possibilities include improving the security gate building, adding more industrial or office buildings, and creating a shared "amenity hub" to add to the sense of community onsite.
