Today property developer GLP has announced that it has begun earthworks on the site of G-Park Ashby-de-la-Zouch.
G-Park Ashby is a 48-acre development site benefitting from an outline planning permission to deliver build-to-suit logistics warehouse opportunities of up to 736,487ft2. Earthworks are progressing rapidly and are expected to be finished by early 2023, with the full development set to complete by Q1 2024.
The units will be built to enhanced specification and will follow the company’s ESG standards. The development will be BREEAM Excellent and WELL ready, and will feature a range of sustainability features including rainwater harvesting and energy tracking and consumption tools for customers.
The site is in a prime location in the Midlands logistics hub, within the ‘Golden Triangle’. G-Park Ashby is situated adjacent to the A42 and A511, providing access to the M42 to the South and the M1 10 miles to the North East.
Adrienne Howells, Senior Development Director at GLP said: “G-Park Ashby is an exciting addition to our portfolio in the Midlands and indicates our ongoing confidence in opportunities in the Golden Triangle, following the success of projects such as Magna Park Lutterworth. Trends such as e-commerce have buoyed already high demand for prime logistics space, particularly high-quality, conveniently-located, sustainable facilities such as this.”
