Plans for a £35 million base for Park Lane College Keighley have been given the green light.

On a site at the junction of Dalton Lane and Bradford Road, the new building is being developed in partnership with Bradford Council and the Learning and Skills Council with additional funding support from Yorkshire Forward.

Members of Keighley Planning Panel have approved the plans which will go before the Council's regulatory committee later this month.

Councillor Andrew Mallin-son, head of the Bradford district's regeneration, said: "This is fantastic news for the college, the Keighley area and all it's people, especially the youngsters."

Andy Allison, director of estates at Park Lane College Leeds & Keighley, said: "We are really pleased the project is moving in the right direction."
