Cube Design's Silverstone Experience attraction

Two-storey visitor centre had been due to open before British Grand Prix

The client behind bust contractor Shaylor’s most high-profile project have confirmed the firm’s administration is likely to delay the opening of the Silverstone Experience Centre by at least two months.

In March 2018 Silverstone received a visit from Prince Harry, who met Shaylor boss Stephen Shaylor and Silverstone chief executive Sally Reynolds to learn about the project.

But the job, which involves construction of a two-storey visitor centre and the refurbishment of a Second World War aircraft hangar, and had been due to open to the public on 9 July, will now not open before September - after the 2019 British Grand Prix this summer.
