THE first phase of a new retail park in Shipley featuring a Lidl supermarket and a drive-thru Costa Coffee is set to open this summer. Builders are on-site at the Airedale Mills on Salts Mill Road, where Shipley meets Baildon for the development, known as Shipley Wharf Retail Park. Work will start on fitting out the Lidl store at the site this summer, ahead of an opening before Christmas, the supermarket giant confirmed. Meanwhile, a drive-thru Costa Coffee will open on the site in late summer. The supermarket will also create 40 full and part-time jobs in the town.

The supermarket, on Harrogate Road, Eccleshill, will be the chain’s latest addition to the district. It forms part of a wider site, which will also include Starbucks and a Greggs. The multi-million pound development, on the former Union Mills site, was given the go-ahead by planners back in December 2017. A Lidl spokesperson said: “We are delighted to confirm that construction of our new Lidl store on Harrogate Road, Eccleshill is now underway which is set to open this summer. “Once opened, the store will create around 40 new full and part time jobs for the local economy and mark a multi-million pound investment in Bradford. We look forward to updating the community further in due course and to delivering our fresh, quality and affordable produce to residents.”
