Issue details

AHWB.023.2019 - Urgent fire safety improvement works at Doncaster Museum

Following Fire Safety Inspections and in light of strict requirements for fire safety duties in public buildings post-Grenfell disaster, the building is no longer considered safe on the first floor in terms of occupancy levels and distances to fire exits. Some fire doors on the route to fire exist are no longer deemed appropriate. A new fire exit is required from the rear of the first floor, improvements to fire safety systems and fire exit routes, and separately, repairs are required to the public lift, which has a motor which has burnt out.
