Stephen Prosser, regional director at St Modwen, said: “We have spent some considerable time consulting with Doncaster Council and Cooper Lighting in order to go forward with the proposals. Our over-riding aim has been to ensure that Cooper Lighting’s long-term future is secured and that a significant number of jobs are maintained – and indeed created – on this vital site for Doncaster.”
